I really liked this program because it was very similar to what I had been using for years now. However I encountered some things that really turned me off.

One --- The Price Seemed a bit steep, but if it was going to work the way I wanted, then ok I would have paid it.

Two --- the documentation which is not there. Yes there is help in the "help menu", but very inadequate when one is trying to work out --- how something works, and that something is going to be used for years to come . You want to get it just right. The help menu is great for minor issues and problems but not for major set up. Still I was going to work with it and see if I could work out some more as I went along.

Three -- The Straw that broke the Camel's back. I am very well aware that Canada is viewed as an afterthought to many developers. I tried very hard to work out how one would make a set of "holiday dates" for Canada. The lack of documentation came into play again. When I saw I was doing it all wrong and noticed the availability of other nations. That was it !!! I uninstalled the program and I shall go back to using the free Mom's Calendar which works sorta OK, not great.

If you the developer read this comment Sir I hope you realize I was offended by this. We Canadians are 35 million strong. We are a very high tech group, just one example. The US space program would still be on the ground. Canada provided the Canada Arm plus a few astronauts .
