I just found out that Alita had passed away. Please accept my deepest sympathy. I spoke to her several times and she was a wonderful person to talk to and helped me out with almost any question I had on the software. I am sure she will be missed not only by you but all of us who had the opportunity to interact with her at Hammerlane. God Bless you and comfort you in these hard times. | ||

Thanks from all Hammer Line staffs for great job. | ||
January 26 2009 | ||
Just stopped by the website to see how things had changed. I used this software in the mid 90s until I stopped driving for health reasons. I thought that it was the best software I had seen for a trucker. I have since moved on and now program computers for a company that provides testing for education and businesses. I don't get to travel around as much as I once did but maybe someday I will make my way out to Oregan and take the time to look you up again. I met you once or twice before at the Burns Brothers Truck Stop and at a Mobile Home office you had near there. I wish you continued success with the program. | ||

Just dropped in to check U out. Bet you're having fun with the website too! Great to see you doing well with your dream! Tracy is looking as beautiful as ever. Got yur numbers now! Too soon to think of SELLING anything. Of course, I would 'plug' it for U if the chance presented itself. Maybe while I'm removing their 'earwax'. They (truckers) would be a captive audience for half an hour minimum, that's for sure! | ||

Fred, Thought I would write just a tid bit here about something that just happened while adding trip information into HL3. I had started to add fuel reciepts from several trips back and in this batch there was one from Newberry Springs,Ca. The amount per gallon was a whopping 3.409. HL3 gave me a prompt that the amount seemed wrong, nope it was right on the money. Thanks for
4 years of good talks and lots of HELP!!! Scott Neal/ EMS Trucking | ||

September 16 2005 | ||
We are a Sub S corporation and are leased to SMX. Have been searching for computer software that doesn't need to duplicate out settlement sheets, just keeps track of gross, fuel, advances etc.... so I can keep track of personal and corporate income & expenses with same program. Have any ideas? | ||
July 31 2005 | ||
I enjoy using HammerLane, it has made keeping up with the bookkeeping much easier. | ||
July 29 2005 | ||
Hammerlane IS the best I've tried them all!
question, I'm running windows 64 bit now and it appears HL is not compatable,are you or will you be working on an upgrade? | ||
July 16 2005 | ||
Hi Fred, John Turner told me to check this out. He said to say hello. We just got our own authority and are looking for a program for that. I am afraid it has been ten years since I finished accounting in college and I have only used to to keep books for an owner operator. I am not sure which of your programs will help me out and am waiting on a few answers from John. Please advise. Thanks. Anita | ||
April 11 2005 | ||

Oh Im new to this business....driver since 1984...Ready to purchase...any advice for a lttle car hauler / business...Thanks. | ||

I am confident I can maintain the proper information to stay complient. Thanks Again! | ||

I am writing this little note to Thank Hammerlane for making my life in the office so much easier. I was doing all my book work and keeping track of loads and drivers advances in a book. Since i have bought the Hammerlane Software I actually love my Job. I am so much more organized, being in this line of work your paper work has to be correct and in line. I would recommend this program to all Trucking companys. Fred with Hammerlane is patient with me and has been great in answering my questions and figuring out my problems. Its usually just a click of a button. But all in all I Love Hammerlane.
Thank-You Again!

Just need an opinion from some owner/operators. If someone could keep track with your receipts, cost to run, and fuel taxes, (basic bookkeeping) would you pay that someone to do it and how much would you be willing to spend? | ||

Dear Sir/Madam:
I am a Trucking Business Operator in Dubai. I was looking for a software which would help me in scheduling, tracking and costing the trips of my trucks. I would like to know which software will suit my business and how much it costs including shipping to Dubai.

AMIT | ||
June 5 2003 | ||
Fred,answer me this why would Hammerlane copy the same info twice on the same disk?It does not do this on my laptop. Seems to me to be an issue with windows or the a:drive,what do you think? | ||
June 5 2003 | ||
Fred,I tried to recover my info onto my main computer from a disk.It started jumping around and locked Hammerlane up.I then had to remove Hammerlane and reinstall it.I had to do this twice,I tried downloading it from your web site thinking something on my disk was bad. I recieved a error message : routine error occured do you wish to debug? line 13 error: object required . Does this make any sense to you? Let me know if you have cleared your program of any defects,and I will get onto Gateway or windows about this. Would it work better with windows xp for business? | ||
May 15 2003 | ||
To end a trip and set up the next trip just click the end trip button on the trip screen | ||
May 15 2003 | ||
Good morning. I just downloaded the sample of Hammerlane Software. My question is, how do you start a second trip, etc.? I do not see where you click to do that. Any help, thanks. | ||
April 29 2003 | ||
Fred, they make a 128meg usb harddrive,sells for 30 to 40 dollars, I recommend it for backing up hammerlane or log book programs is a lifesaver when you have computer problems, you know when uncle Murphy strikes.You can do a full restore without searching for floppys ect. | ||
April 28 2003 | ||
Hello Stewart
Sorry about taking so long to answer. HammerLane will run on any flavor of Windows and requires 8 megs of disk space.
Fred | ||
April 21 2003 | ||
nothing on your web page tells me your minimum system requirements to run the software. please let me know, seen your demo down at louisville, would like to know more about it. thanks. | ||
April 12 2003 | ||
I am an owner operator out of Ontario Canada. I drive primarily in the U.S.
I was wondering if there is anyway that I can test the demo without having to enter State/Zip? | ||
March 7 2003 | ||
hello there- just droppin a line to say HELLO to hammerlane.com - i live at hammers lane and i have hammerslane.com! vv interesting for you and me. cya | ||
February 26 2003 | ||
Hi Scott
If you will go to the Expense entry screen and click on the Edit Expense types button then scroll through the list you will notice that each expense type is ether "T" for trip related expense or "F" for truck fixed expenses like truck payment and "P" for personal expenses. The only expense that needs to be entered in to the correct trip are related to that trip. All other expenses can be entered in to any trip. HammerLane then shows the trip expense against that trip. When you click the bookkeeping or P/L summary buttons HammerLane prints out your report keeping the trip, fixed and personal expenses separate. | ||
February 25 2003 | ||
I have been looking at software options for our new trucking business. I have been looking at O/O demo (we have 1 truck). I cannot seem to find where you keep track of expenses that are not charged against a trip. We basically deal with brokers so all our expenses will be incurred by us not who we do the trip for. I am looking for an all inclusive software that can help me track not only the trip, invoicing, fuel, but also general expenses related to our business that will help us report at tax time. | ||
