		  INTELLICORP DELIVERS KAPPA-PC 2.0

	     OBJECT-ORIENTED ENVIRONMENT FOR INTEGRATING
		 DESKTOP AND HOST-BASED APPLICATIONS

ObjectWorld, San Francisco, California, July 21, 1992 -- IntelliCorp
(NASDAQ/NMS:INAI) has started shipping KAPPA-PC 2.0, an object-oriented
application framework for unifying desktop computing with traditional
Information Systems (IS) host-based transaction processing and database
environments.  

KAPPA-PC 2.0 supports links to a wide range of Microsoft Windows-based
applications including spreadsheets, text management, and graphic
presentation software.  Among the links now supported are Dynamic Link
Libraries (DLLs) and a Dynamic Data Exchange (DDE) interface.  KAPPA-PC
2.0 also allows users to create composite applications on the PC that
integrate access to UNIX and mainframe data and transactions.  KAPPA-PC
customers can now use PROKAPPA servers to off-load logic processing to
UNIX workstations.

"With KAPPA-PC 2.0, IntelliCorp customers can begin to develop and
deliver three-tiered client/server solutions across PC's, UNIX
workstations, and mainframes," said Kc Branscomb, president and chief
executive officer of IntelliCorp.  "Combined with KAPPA-PC's graphical
development and business modeling capabilities, this is a unique
offering in the marketplace."

		   GEARED TO PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPERS

In addition to the integration capabilities, KAPPA-PC 2.0 provides a
high-level graphical development environment geared to professional
developers.  

Al Garcia of the Advanced Development Center of Electronics and Space
Corporation says, "KAPPA-PC has been my tool of choice because it
offers me the broadest range of programming models, i.e., object-
oriented, rule-based, and procedural programming.  It has the friendli-
est developer interface, and the open architecture gives me the freedom
I need to configure software that is unrestricted in its functionality."

KAPPA-PC 2.0 supports rapid application development and deployment by
providing facilities to incrementally test and refine applications
without the standard compile, link, and edit cycles, three highly time-
consuming elements of traditional programming techniques.

Among KAPPA-PC's benefits are generation of ANSI C code for
Microsoft, Borland C and C++ compilers, and the provision of
powerful class libraries for debugging, program management, and
building graphical user interfaces.  Version 2.0 delivers a
twenty-fold overall performance improvement over previous releases
of KAPPA-PC.

Release 2.0 of KAPPA-PC is available immediately, and is compatible
with MS-Windows version 3.1.  Special promotional pricing is
currently available for a limited time only for development
licenses.  Interanational pricing may vary.

IntelliCorp develops and markets software for the design and
construction of client/server applications to IS customers.  The
company's products, PROKAPPA, KAPPA-PC, and KEE are enriched by ten
years of experience in object-oriented development technology and
knowledge systems applications.  IntelliCorp products are marketed
through the company's direct sales force and authorized resellers.

IntelliCorp is headquartered in Mountain View, California, and employs
120 people.  The company has offices across the United States and
Europe.
