Tired of trying to figure out how to work around "features" in the heavily advertised microcomputer accounting packages? If you have a small professional office and are comfortable with double-entry bookkeeping you can save a lot of time and frustration by using a simple general ledger like General Ledger III (GL III).

The specialized journals speed up data entry, but each voucher you enter is simply a debit or series of debits plus a balancing credit or series of credits. Editing already entered transactions is a snap.
