----------------------------Original message----------------------------
Hello all,
I recently noticed an ad for a program called Historian from Fortres Grand
Corporation <www.fortres.com> This program appears to do just what we
need--records, audits and reports computer use while being *locally* loaded
on a Windows 95 workstation. (I realize there are network programs that
perform these functions but that is not currently an option for us.)
My question: has anyone tried it? Does this program really do what it says,
and is it at least fairly easy to use?
(I recently cross-posted this message to MEDLIB-L but got just one response.
A search of the PACS-L archive indicated that this program has not been
discussed.)
Thanks for your help.
