LogPak Going In A New Direction In 2006

State College, PA - Scanlon Associates announced today that responsibility for one of their flagship products, LogPak, has been assumed by Codebottle of Rochester, NY. Leading Codebottle is David Kilmer, one of Scanlon Associates programming consultants.

Stan Scanlon, owner of Scanlon Associates, said that LogPak users can look forward to the same level of programming and support that they have always enjoyed. "David Kilmer was the original programmer and architect of LogPak for Windows in 1995. He authored the most recent updates for the regulation changes that took effect in October 2004. LogPak users will be able to access the same expertise through Codebottle that they have always had with Scanlon Associates."

LogPak was originally written for PCs running DOS in the 1980's. It was migrated to the MS Windows platform by Mr. Kilmer in 1995 as Scanlon's first Windows-based product. Currently there are several hundred LogPak systems in operation.
