We have CoPath for a year and it has done nothing for us in Histology as far
as cutting down on paperwork.  We thought we would be able to get a lot of
our workload reports, but we have not been able to figure out one report.  I
am not a very computer-oriented person, but our experts here have not been
able to work out anything for us, either.  I do not recommend CoPath.

I believe CoPath is a good choice. We have Cerner and find that it is not
geared to Anatomic Pathology as well as it is to the Clinical lab. Good
luck! j

	       Dear histonetters,
	            We are going to change the Windows program we use in our

	histology + sytology lab.Therefore would be very interested in what
kind of 
	programs do you use in your labs ? Have anyone used for example
CoPath Plus 
	system ?,
	or what kind of experiences do you have about other programs ?

	     With the best wishes to all,
