INFORMATION TO BE INCLUDED IN THE REPORT

Item 2.  Acquisition or Disposition of Assets.

As reported on Form 8-K filed July 1, 2003, Dendrite International, Inc. (“Dendrite”) issued a press release announcing that it had completed its acquisition of SYNAVANT Inc. (“Synavant”). Pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger, dated as of May 9, 2003 and amended as of May 16, 2003, by and among Dendrite, Synavant, and Amgis Acquisition Co. (“Amgis”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Dendrite, Amgis and Dendrite completed, on June 16, 2003, an all cash tender offer to acquire all of the outstanding shares of common stock of Synavant, at a price of $3.22 per share, followed by a short-form merger through which Amgis merged with and into Synavant. In the merger, each share of Synavant common stock held by a stockholder that did not tender its shares in the tender offer (other than those held by Dendrite, Amgis or Synavant, and any shares in respect of which appraisal rights may be properly demanded in accordance with the Delaware General Corporation Law) was automatically converted into the right to receive a cash payment of $3.22, without interest. As a result of the merger, Synavant became a wholly-owned subsidiary of Dendrite.

This Form 8-K/A amends the current report on Form 8-K filed July 1, 2003 to include Item 7(a) Financial Statements and Item 7(b) Pro forma Financial Information.
