.Hi,

.I'm trying to get VP-Info, VP_Planner and PC-Write working for him but

."Watch out for that tree!!!!"

Most programs have a version that will run on The Tandy 2000.
I know PC-wright does, I don't know about VP,
Now the 2000 is out now and I don't expect a large degree of
support to continue.
