Re: Zyindex ( non zywrite question)

["Robert H. Kubie" rhkubie@xxxxxxxx]

I was following this thread with only limited attention. Then it suddenly
occurred to me that you all seem to be discussing software that sounds like
the old Lotus Magellan program that I used to like a lot, but which
vanished off the scene and out of my ken many years ago.
Does Lotus Magellan ring a bell with anyone? Are the programs Zyindex
and/or dtSearch like my long lost Magellan?
