Hi!

I'm looking for a finance program for my XEGS (64k) - with a
Indus GT disk (and a PR connection with an epson printer...).

I'd like the program to be able to do the following:
  Checking account
  Several Savings accounts (three actually)
  Credit card accounts (a couple) - where if I write a check
   to pay one, I'd really like the payment shown in both the
   checking account and the credit card account.
  It'd be nice if it could print checks and mailing labels
   (or at least have a way to export data to some other program
   that could do this for me).
  If I have to export the data (and can), what would be a good
   program to print the checks/mailing labels from? AtariWriter?
   What other word processors are there?

Is there such a program?

All I've seen the following names in Atari Explorer without
descriptions:
   Bookkeeper/Keypad
   Home Accountant
   Money Manager
   Family Finance
   Money Tools
   Financial Cookbook - I'm guessing this is a program from
    EA where you have a menu of a lot of financial problems
    and you select which you need a solution for - it did things
    like loan payments over X years and lots of other problems.

Will any of these programs do what I want?
