Art, I have the original V-Term disk, v 3.04, made by Gimmesoft.  Is that 
the program you want?  I have never really tried it, so I can't say for sure 
that it works.  The physical disk is located at our family cabin, and may 
not be accessible right now, depending on how much ice is blocking the 
basement door.  I also have the manual, and hopefully they are in the same 
storage tub.  I made a copy of the disk on my Cloud 9 hard drive, so that 
might be easier to get to right now.  Can I make a copy of the disk from my 
hard drive and mail it to you?  Would you rather wait a week or so to see if 
I can find the original disk and the manual?  Is this what you are looking 
for, or is this an entirely different beast with the same name?
