Information about “PEN PAL”

Is it a mailmerging text editor that works great as an address
manager?  Or is it a super address manager for business or personal use
that also automates mass correspondence?  Or is it the perfect printing
utility that lets you print Rolodex cards, envelopes, labels, and more a
from the same program?  It is all of these things and none the worse for
being so versatile.

With PEN PAL you don't have to worry about getting your wordprocessor to
talk to your database and vice versa.  This is a truly integrated system
that takes out the middleman.  Even the ambitious beginner can be mass
producing letters the first time through the program.  You will find
features that help you improve your correspondence, such as the ability
to customize the salutation for each individual in your database.  It is
completely menu-driven for fast effective use and the screen design is
easy to follow.  You can save up to 99 different letters on file for
future editing and use.  The program even supports common database
formats for easy data exchange into other programs should you need them.

Before you go to all the trouble of building a database/wordprocessing
system and configuring it all for custom printing, consider PEN PAL.
The work may already be done for you.
