programme so much I've replaced the 'To Do' button with this programme, it's fantastic. I use it for a checklist for things to take to my caravan when I go on holiday, I use it to tell me what was already left at the caravan last time, I use it to keep a list of all the customers where I leave leaflets on a regular basis, I use it to mark off a list of prospects to speak to in a day and if I write any business I enter this in the amount column then at the end of the day I press the £ button to find a tally of what I have written. And lots more - I keep finding more uses every day. Excellent utillity.

course, just an update for the Packager tool, since THERE IS NO Macromedia Authorware for the Macintosh, because Macromedia just can't be bothered - you have to do all your work on Windoze. So, the Download Demo link won't do you any good at all, for 2 reasons: 1) there ain't a Mac full version, so why would there be a Mac demo? 2) Macromedia's 3 pages of forms to fill out EVERY TIME you download a demo; even if you have a Macromedia ID you have to confirm everything every time, and have to uncheck the "send me spam!" boxes which mysteriously become active (hint: fill it with garbage, maybe they'll eventually get the hint). It's rather odd that they tout AuthorWare for "learning applications" but ignore how many Macs are in education. It's like Adobe ceasing work on the Mac version of Photoshop to focus on the Windoze version and saying "don't worry, you can save a Photoshop picture as a GIF or a PICT or something." No, you're probably better off getting one of the free and cross-platform tools such as iShell. Rating: Poor. Poor form for not actually making a Mac version, and poor form for supplying misleading information to VersionTracker.

deserted all of us on the Mac, this download is only useful if you are working with a fellow educational developer who lives in the Windoze world. We are successful in Packaging A5R files with this product's former self and, as such, it's OK. Most of us at this office are disgusted with the attitude taken by Macromedia only a few weeks after we purchased A4 for Mac and invested $thousands in training classes for staff, only to find they don't care about Mac developers. Rating: POOR. Poor support of a loyal band of users to discontinue development on our easy to use platform, and poor misleading information on VersionTracker.
