Assuming your target system is an ibm pc compatible, I would suggest you
look at one of the major shareware catalogs, such as "Public Brand Software"
or "PC-sig"...or try one of the many shareware distrubtors (Try a small
local/area computer show or hamfest...)

I have seen several different shareware and PD packages for various types
of business and applications.  One that comes to mind was called "Medlin
Accounting".  The major failing of the product was poor documentation, of
course.  Be sure to talk to your accountant about this.  (Accountants are
your friends.  I used to avoid them, and learned a very expensive lesson.)

Regards, and good luck on you new venture!
