Q&A was a database and word processing software program for IBM PC-compatible computers published by Symantec and partners from 1985 to 1998. It was written by a team headed by Symantec founder Dr. Gary Hendrix, Denis Coleman, and Gordon Eubanks. Released by Symantec in 1985 for MS-DOS computers, Q&A's flat-file database and integrated word processing application is cited as a significant step towards making computers less intimidating and more user friendly. Among its features was a natural language search function based on a 600 word internal vocabulary.

  • F&A war ein Datenbank- und Textverarbeitungsprogramm für IBM-PCs. Die Abkürzung steht für Frage & Antwort. Es wurde von Symantec entwickelt und kam 1985 als DOS-Version auf den Markt, im englischsprachigen Original als Q&A (Question&Answer). Das System wurde seit 1996 nicht mehr weiterentwickelt und an das deutsche Unternehmen CAB GmbH verkauft. Von der Version 5.0, welche von der PFP Software GmbH im Auftrag von Symantec entwickelt wurde, konnten ca. 100.000 Lizenzen verkauft werden. Die Firma Lantica LLC hat ein Nachfolgeprodukt zu F&A mit dem Namen „Sesame“ entwickelt. Dieses ist in der Lage, aus F&A stammende Daten zu importieren.Herausragende Merkmale der Software waren die damals vielen Importschnittstellen und vor allem die leichte Gestaltung von Abfragen.
