Abstract
An insurance underwriting expert system is designed and implemented around an existing mainframe program, driven by a sizable old-fashioned database. It is shown how modeling helped not only to identify real user needs but also to untangle many accumulated complications in the existing repository of information. The author also highlights which conceptual modeling mechanisms are most needed to support such tasks.<>
