The Company expanded its solutions in high-growth areas including trading

announcements and milestones in the first quarter include:

-- Emerging leadership in trading communities. J.D. Edwards signed an


agreement with TRADEX Technologies Inc., making it the first company

of these collaborative business-to-business environments as part of


their J.D. Edwards solution. The agreement also enables the Company


to establish its own trading communities. J.D. Edwards plans to


leverage its domain expertise in supply chain planning and execution


using the TRADEX solution. As part of this agreement, J.D. Edwards


will be making a minority equity investment in the company. Ariba


Inc. has announced it plans to acquire TRADEX in early 2000.

-- Continued growth in license fee revenue. License fee revenue


increased 20% over the first quarter of fiscal 1999. The growth was


fueled by sales to customers including Anchor Glass Container Corp.,


Ampacet Corporation, Gateway, Inc., Erickson Retirement Communities,
