Currently the QuickBooks Pro is covered (http://www.codeweavers.com/site/products/cxoffice/supported_apps/?id=14) but with a Bronze rating (http://www.codeweavers.com/site/products/cxoffice/medals) which shows that "CodeWeavers makes a firm commitment to bring all bronze applications to the silver level in future releases of CrossOver". Hope this helps some.

    I was hoping to stay away from proprietary stuff, but from what I
have seen so far, Quickbooks is the hands down winner for what he needs.
The contractor version looks like it was almost custom tailored for his
business. I never realized that there so few apps written that are
geared towards small contractor type businesses until I began this
search. It goes from home user to megabusiness with nothing that seems
to fill the gap.

    Thanks to everyone for the ideas.
