             ---------------------------------------------
 
Ladies and Gentlemen:
 
    Our  opinion  has been  requested  in connection  with  the above-referenced
registration statement (the "Registration Statement") filed with the  Securities
and  Exchange  Commission by  4Front  Software International,  Inc.,  a Colorado
corporation (the "Company"). The Registration Statement relates to the  issuance
of up to 3,450,000 shares of the Company's Common Stock (the "Shares").
 
    We  have examined such  corporate records and other  documents and have made
such examinations of law as we have deemed relevant. Based on and subject to the
above, it is our opinion  that the Shares are  duly authorized and, when  issued
and  sold as contemplated under the terms of the Registration Statement, will be
duly authorized, legally issued, fully paid and non-assessable.
 
    We hereby  consent to  the filing  of this  opinion as  Exhibit 5.1  to  the
Registration  Statement  and to  the  reference therein  to  our firm  under the
caption "Legal Matters."  In giving  the foregoing  consent, we  do not  thereby
admit  that we are  in the category  of persons whose  consent is required under
Section 7 of the Act or the rules and regulations of the Commission  promulgated
thereunder.
 
                                          Very truly yours,
 
                                          /s/ MILLER & HOLGUIN
 
                                          MILLER & HOLGUIN
