Guy,
You might try Passport Software for your Realworld upgrade if you 
don't find satisfactory filepro packages soon. They always had 
packages that were based on RealWorld Accounting. Just search for 
Passport Accounting Software.
I haven't had any association with them in 5 years or more but they 
were always excellent.

Bill
