The British Columbia Forest Service has recently built a suite of Windows based tools to enable its diverse client base to conduct FVS runs in a used-friendly computer environment. The tools are (1) DATAprog -- a generic treelist builder/data translator; (2) SIMprog -- a single stand, 'keywordless' simulation tool that is designed for silviculture gaming; and (3) flexible tabular and graphical reporting tools. The rationale, functionality, and future development direction of each tool is discussed.
