Any SuperWorks mavens here?

[Jeff Wisnia <jwisnia@110.net>]

I purchased a copy of SuperWorks from Remarkable Technologies in the
early 90s to let one of our administrators who loved Appleworks on her
Apple //e work with a familiar interface for her daily desktop
activities.

I received a copy of Version 3.1(US) from Remarkable shipped with a
Version 2.0 manual and an update sheet listing the added features in
Version 3.1. A letter from Remarkable which also came with the package
said I'd receive a 3.1 addendum to the manual "when available". I guess
"when" never happened, as I never heard anything more from Remarkable.

One of the "new features" mentioned in the update sheet was for the
Database portion of the suite. It said, "Export your database data to
dBase format." I read that and said to myself, "Awright, when the time
comes I can get the data she's entered in through SuperWorks out in a
format that some popular Windows database program can import."  I
remember taking some of the old Appleworks database files she brought
in, shipping them through Crossworks to her office PC, converting them
to dBase3 format and letting her import them into SuperWorks where she's
proceded to add data to them for the last eight years. So now she has
several databases full of useful information which will be a big PIA to
have to print out and key into Works or some other Windows database
progam so they can be shared with others.

The time to quit using SuperWorks came today, but I can't figure out how
to export the SuperWorks database files as dBase files, or as anything
else for that matter.

Was the dBase export function in SuperWorks 3.1 just vaporware? If not,
how do I get it to happen?

Thanks guys. E-mail copies of replies appreciated, my ISP's news server
gets flaky some days.
