     In March 1998, Altris Software, Inc. (the "Company") announced that it 
was conducting a review of its interim financial information and annual 
financial statements for 1996 and the interim information for the first three 
quarters of 1997 with a view to determining whether the revenue previously 
reported for such periods was recognized in accordance with generally 
accepted accounting principles.  As a result of this review, the Company has 
restated such financial statements.  This Amendment to the Company's 
Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q sets forth the restated financial statements of 
the Company for the three months ended March 31, 1997.

     Information in the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q as originally filed was 
presented as of the date of such original filing or earlier, as indicated 
therein.  Unless otherwise stated, such information has not been updated in 
this Amendment.  In particular, "Item 2.  Management's Discussion and 
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" as originally 
filed discussed the Company's financial condition and results of operations 
based on the financial statements in the Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q as 
originally filed, without consideration of the restatement reflected herein, 
and therefore no reliance should be placed thereon.  Please refer to "Item 7. 
Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of 
Operations" appearing in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the 
year ended December 31, 1997.

                NOTES TO THE CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
                                  (Unaudited)

NOTE 1 - BASIS OF PRESENTATION

     The accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Altris Software, Inc. 
(the "Company") as of March 31, 1997 and the consolidated statement of 
operations and of cash flows for the three month periods ended March 31, 1997 
and 1996 are unaudited.  The consolidated financial statements and related 
notes have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting 
principles applicable to interim periods.  In the opinion of management, the 
consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments, consisting only of 
normal recurring adjustments, necessary for a fair presentation of the 
consolidated financial position, operating results and cash flows for the 
periods presented.

     The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the 
Company and its wholly owned subsidiaries.  All significant intercompany 
balances and transactions have been eliminated.

     The financial statements included herein have been restated from those 
previously published to reflect corrections of misapplications of the 
Company's for revenue recognition policies.  The results for the quarters 
ended March 31, 1997 and 1996 have been amended to reflect changes in the 
timing and amount of revenue recognition for those contracts where 
subsequently discovered facts indicate that revenue had initially been 
recognized before: (a) there was persuasive evidence of an agreement between 
the Company and the customer; (b) the amount of the fee had become fixed; (c) 
there was sufficient evidence of the delivery of the product or services; (d) 
customer cancellation rights had expired; or (e) a reasonable estimate could 
be made of returns from those customers (primarily Value Added Resellers) 
having exchange rights. 

     The reconciliation of previously reported results to restated results 
for the three months ended March 31, 1997 and 1996 are as follows:

NOTE 2 - NET INCOME (LOSS) PER SHARE

     Net income (loss) per share is computed on the basis of weighted average 
shares and common stock equivalent shares outstanding for each period 
presented, if dilutive.

     In February 1997, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued SFAS 
No. 128, "Earnings per Share," which establishes standards for computing and 
presenting earnings per share ("EPS").  SFAS No. 128 will be adopted by the 
Company as required for the interim period and fiscal year ending December 
31, 1997.  Upon adoption of SFAS No. 128, the Company will present basic EPS 
as well as diluted EPS in the period of adoption and restate all prior-period 
EPS data presented for comparative purposes.  Basic EPS will be computed by 
dividing income available to common shareholders by the weighted average 
number of shares of common stock outstanding.  Diluted EPS will be computed 
similar to basic EPS except that the weighted average number of shares of 
common stock outstanding will be increased to include the number of 
additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the dilutive 
potential common shares had been issued.  The pro forma EPS calculations 
based upon SFAS No. 128 are indicated below:
