"It came, I saw, It Conquered." [With apologies to Julius Caesar :-) this is what one of our customers eloquently wrote when she received her Library of 17,500 WinPed-pedigrees converted from a database of some 21,000 records]. A. B., CA.

If you would like to donate a program as one of our prizes, we would put your name in the catalog [I'll be glad to!]. ... . It would be something very different and easy to pack in the suitcase!", J. C., Pleasanton, CA.
"Thanks for your help, but I think I have solved the problem. I backed the system up to before when I did not have a problem. Thank you for not abandoning me in my frustration.

questions.
Thank you so much.", J. J., via the Internet.
"Are you able to convert "....." pedigrees from: "....." program (which I can't make heads or tails of to use!) to WinPed? [Yes, we can]. BTW, WinPed is absolutely wonderful. I'm one of those people who just sit down, don't read directions and attempt to figure out things...I could do that with WinPed and was inputting some of my pedigrees, running linebreeding [percentages], printing litter applications. My gosh this is a wonderful program! ...... I'd love to help market this program for you!", R.B., Choctaw, OK.
"I received my program today, and it is everything I was hoping for. .... . I was amazed at how easy it was to create a pedigree. I am thrilled with the WIN PED program!!!. Thanks again.", J. B., Voluntown, CT.
"I have been playing around with the program and I am excited to see what else is available. I am not a computer nerd so it takes me a little while to bum my way around any program. It installed beautifully and I am totally pleased with the results. The word sensational comes to mind. Everything for my dogs at my fingertips (literally speaking). Thanks again." R. H., Wyoming, DE.
"Although I'm only just starting using WinPed I can tell it is going to add a very professional quality to my record keeping." D. P., Hattiesburg, MS.
"Very nice indeed....I am sure I will be spending more time with [this] computer software than reading the journals." E. C. MD, Philippines.
"By the way, this is by FAR the BEST one we have seen and very simple to understand .... very impressed!" S.M. via Internet.
"WinPed is up and running. I entered my fist pedigree yesterday, and couldn't believe how easy and simple it was, especially with the shortcuts." K&E H., BC, Canada
"I thank you for making such an easy to use program. It is far easier than '...'. One thing I really disliked about '...' was the name limitation on the pedigrees. Also how they entered titles." ...." Having the AKC documents is great. Now I don't have to worry about meeting their record keeping standards because I am already using their documents. Please send me my registration number so I can fully activate the program. I look forward to many years of working with it and you." T. S., Florida.
"Thanks for all your help, I'll get back to you later in the week to order the program, it looks so much better than the others I've checked out and the one I wasted BIG $$$ on ' .... ' , not a case where you get what you pay for... " D. J., North Dakota, via the Internet
"I also have been looking for a good software program and have reviewed about 8 of them. We have 2 different breeds of dogs that we show and wanted a program to suit both breeds. I have narrowed it down to one and it is WinPed. Seems to have every option I've been looking for." Connie.
"Thanks a bunch. It's really great doing business with such a wonderful person. Most people, once they sell you something they don't want to bother with you anymore. I have enjoyed doing business with you and hope to send you more. I respect your honesty and loyality. Not a lot of those people left. Keep up your good work." J. M., Fayetteville, OH.
"Have you been looking for an up-dated Pedigree Program?, Well we have done an extensive search and have found that WinPed is the one to look at. ... This program has it all, from health records, proposed breedings, pedigrees, contracts, and much more" excerpt from Newsletter of Southeast German Pinscher Club.
"I currently have '.....' and am very frustrated with the '.....' database [which] freezes with the slightest command error, causing me to lose my unsaved data.", S. J. , Florida.
"I printed up another pedigree and it was absolutely beautiful! .... no other program can come close to your pedigree, I just love it, and I congratulate you on a job well done!!!!!! Your get a big AAA+" Barb, via the Internet.
"I did buy '.....' from '.....' to use as a kennel program, but found that to be cumbersome ... I'm not a programmer. ", S. L., Montana.
"It seams like you have made all of the necessary changes that a lot of people, including myself have been waiting for. I know I have spoken highly about your program in the past to all of my Shepherd friends and now that you offer the new features, it should be an excellent program that is very affordable.", G., Internet.
"I just bought '.....' software package, ............. . It's not a bad program but the way you have to enter information is pretty confusing if you are not paying attention. .............. . Entering a Pedigree is a [!@#$%]. Your Pedigree program [WinPed] is much better. [Thanks] .................. . They do put restrictions on you in some areas like ............ they want a certain size image and it has to be a Bitmap image. Great, all mine are either jpg or pcx files, so now I have to convert and resize them all. [WinPed 8.1 (or higher) loads and displays .bmp, .jpg, .ico, .gif, .wmf, .emf, and .rle images, of any size, and automatically scales them at print time] . I also have found that there are several areas in the program where you need to enter information in various fields, but I'm having trouble trying to figure out just what the heck they want me to enter. I still haven't found out where I am supposed to enter my Kennel Name. ................. . I had also looked at '.....' and had tried their Demo. It was OK, but not what I was looking for.", R. C., Arizona.
"Hi, at this time I have '.....' and '.....'. Both of them cut off the name of my dogs. I like to put all their titles when they have them and it is so annoying to have the name of the dog chopped off. Therefore I dislike both of those programs. My question to you is does your program cut the name off also?? [No, WinPed does not cut off the names, there is plenty of space for long names with lots of titles] I want the whole name, titles and all, on 1 line, the OFA could be on a second line if it had to be, but everything else needs to fit on 1 line .............. do you think your program would allow a long name like: .........., titles and all? [Yes] If it does I'm buying it if not I don't want it. If I get it and it doesn't I'm sending it right back, just to be honest with you from the start. [SOLD!]", A. S. , Florida.
"I have to admit that after seeing the other packages I wasn't expecting what I found from yours. It appears to be a solidly built package, containing many of the features I was looking for. Also are you looking to do retail sales of this package? I would love to carry this in my store. (I like to try to carry any product which I would use and this is definitely one of them). ", G. Z. , Internet,
