In MacWeek some time back (March maybe?), I saw a reference to a
Reflex+ SIG some group had formed. Does anyone have information
on this (or other Reflex+ SIGs or user groups in the US)?

FYI: Relfex was originally published by Analytica, a now-defunct
Mac software company I believe. Borland bought the rights to the
program, issued it originally as "Reflex for the Mac", then updated
it (and boosted its price) to "Reflex Plus".

Despite a similarity in NAME to Borland's PC software, "Reflex" (a  
flat-file data manager), Reflex FtM (or Reflex+) was (is) a relational
product, ideal for single-user applications provided total record
numbers don't exceed 5000 or so (in which case speed suffers).

If anyone can tell me the legal status of the product (ie. does Borland
still own it? Is it released into the public domain - that is, orphaned?
etc.), I'd like to know. Mail responses to me directly, if you don't
want to trouble this area with postings on these matters.

Thanks in advance.

I forwarded your question to our Customer Support, and here's their
reply:

--------
Cy,
 
We completely discontinued production and sales of this product.
Unfortunately it has not been picked up by any other companies.
We do not have any replacements left for this product.
  
If I can be of further assistance, please let me know.
   
Thank you,

They can be accessed at GO BORCS on CompuServe, or through the net
at 76701.251@compuserve.com (that's the right CIS ID, but I'm not
100% sure of the format).
