I'm downloading it right now. There are no screenshots, so it'll be
hard to tell until I install it.

Okay, I've looked at it. Great concept, but questionable execution.

One broad complaint I have is that every entry requires THREE clicks to
save. First, you click Save. Then a dialog box comes up that asks if
you want to save, then another dialog box giving you a record number (of
no obvious use the reader). This needs to be shortened. Maddening to
have to click three times to save a record.

The calendar is fairly nice, but there's no way to indicate recurring
events. A fatal flaw, in my opinion.

Several screens, such as the Contacts screen, have a text field to store
a lot of data, for comments, etc., but no way to display more than one
line at a time, as far as I can see.

And, my constant complaint, no way to print an envelope from the
Contacts list, and no easy way to copy envelope information to the
clipboard.

The program is very nice to look at. A lot of thought went into
aesthetics, but deficiencies like the above make it unusable for me.

Thanks. I'm convinced.

I have had to continue to use the free version of Time and Chaos. It
comes as close as I can get to what I need, but it, too, is not perfect.

Thanks for the feedback.
