Eric:

The problem with windows accounting software is that it is too new even 
after 2 years, the products have disappointed users who wanted to have 
several people do data entry on a module at the same time ( e.g. A/P). I 
am also a CPA but have chosen to "outsource" the installation and 
training after the clients specific needs are analyzed.  Of the products 
you named, Solomon seems to be the best so far.
