There is a version 5.2a available.  It however, is payware: $150.00.
To here them tell it, the folks at Computerwise Consulting were severely 
put upon by people demanding free support.  Frankly, I think that they
should have charged a nominal fee for the software and their usual fees
for consultation since they say that their problem was demands for
support.  However, I'm not they, so I don't know the whole story.

Since V3.10 suits my needs (used once in a blue moon and works fine), I 
am not currently using V5.2a.  It'n not worth that kind of money for my
needs (your milage may vary).

They don't say anything about liscensing the source, but you don't
know until you ask.  I notice that their address is unchanged but they
seem to have a new phone:

               Computerwise Consulting Services
               P.O. Box 813
               McClean, VA 22101
               (703) 450-7175

I though that 3.10 was quite excellent and I don't understand why
people had any serious problems with it.

regards, Larry
