Dear Employer,

I have been programming in the MUMPS (M, Cache) programming language since 1973. My entire professional career has been devoted to MUMPS and some internet programming. I have worked for: 18 Hospitals

6 HMO's (Health Maintenance Organizations)

4 Universities

5 Commercial Laboratories

17 Vendors

for a total of 50 different organizations. Much of my work has been with the popular IDX/GE Systems. I can work anywhere under contract. Please forward copies of my resume to your branch offices. This attached MS Word and PDF document consists of the following 15 pages: Pages 1 to 2. This is my resume. I have listed all of the applications that I have worked on, and whether I developed each from scratch or only maintained it (fix bugs, add features, train users). Pages 3 to 14. Chronological Clients & Projects lists complete details of all of my work for each Client. This includes the Client's address, years that I worked there, type of organization, Hardware/Operating System, Software, and the various projects on which I worked there. Page 15. This page.

If you have need for any MUMPS / Cache / ObjectScript programming expertise, please feel free to contact me. Sincerely,

Charles Volkstorf
