[Download-List] Datatel clients using Cedarville Download

[Ed Ogawa]

We're on UniData and use Download *extensively*. I don't know where we'd be
without it. There's been talk of converting to SQL but nothing definite in
the foreseeable future (that I know of). When that happens, we would be
very grateful for a compatible Download. Thanks for all your hard work and
service to our community.
