Borland CFO Quits, Marking Year’s 3rd Exec Change: Borland International Inc. Chief Financial Officer Gary Mullin said he will leave in September after 10 months at the troubled Scotts Valley, Calif.-based software company. Borland said it is seeking a successor. Chief Executive Gary Wetsel quit last month; Chairman William Miller is filling in until a permanent successor for Wetsel is chosen. Miller, a Stanford University business professor, was appointed chairman in January after founder Philippe Kahn quit. Mullin plans to take a similar position in another company, Borland said. Borland, once the third-largest maker of software for desktop computers, has been struggling to overcome product delays, price wars, competition from Microsoft Corp. and weak sales of its dBase program. Borland shares closed unchanged at $8.25 on Nasdaq.
