Curious as to what lab software people are using these days... Also, if anyone had any software that was somewhat newer than the 1990's.... Yes.... If anyone had any for sale...
Thanks

Innovations here. Tho its nothing more than a subsystem. The office management software generates a file and innovations automatically processes it, so there is no human interaction with our lab software other than lens database updates.
<sob> ... nothing more than a ... <sniff> ... subsystem! <whaaaaahhhh>
I dont mean this in a bad way. This has saved 4-6 hours of computing time a day in our office. No re-entering of frame and lens information, not to mention re-entering the rx info. Take the order, give it a quick once-over, two key presses if nothing is wrong and out comes the lab sheet.
I still remember the old solarx that came on the 5 1/4" floppy disk.
Kidding. We're that kind of subsystem in lots of places. It's efficient and effective.
If you like, you can automate the lens database updates, too, and then you really don't have to interact with the lab software.
5-1/4" disks? Why, I still have some 8" floppies (somewhere)! I don't know why, because I certainly don't have any 8" drives... I remember when those came out - they were originally used to bootstrap IBM 370 mainframes.
I'd like some info on how to do that. Right now I just have the computer remind me every other month or so to d/l the update and install it. (then set all of my block charts) Making that fully automated would be great.
Man, I've seen those disks now and again. The book-keeper that was here when I started mentioned how she had the really old drums that were interchangeable. That must have been a nightmare.
