We are using Pro-Search to assist with searches conducted on the Dialog
Information System via dial-up access.  Recently, we became aware of the
availability of Dialog access through the Internet.  Pro-Search, however,
does not work with a telnet connection.  I'm wondering if there is a
similar product that will work with a telnet connection, or if any users
of Dialog via the Internet have a method for dealing with these issues:

- record accounting information for a search (client, nature of search,
cost, etc.).  The Pro-Search program does this and provides summaries by
time period, client, etc.

- construction of searches off-line

Thanks,
