Does "Have fun" imply (sarcastically) that it's a job you've done, and
that it's a big hairy deal.  I'm afraid that's what you mean.  I don't
particularly care for the ACT! user interface, and fear that it's just
a reflection of some deeper ugliness, mired with ill-considered
spaghetti code.

If anyone's got any code fragments that could point me to a starting
place, I'd sure appreciate it.  Basically, I'm going through my ACT!
database and cleaning up the city/state/zip, so I don't need deep
access to all the esoteric periphery of ACT!
