Thank you for your reply Milan and for your patience in answering my 'new guy' questions. I am just beginning to study computer programming. I am beginning with learning Python (on the advice of several individuals who are advanced coders themselves). Also, I am working on learning HTML (especially 5.0), and CSS 3. As I become competent with those languages, I plan on beginning studying PHP and Qt. I hope that as I gain competency with these languages that I can apply that knowledge to help extend and improve Evolution even further. I think that it is a Great Program, but then perhaps I am a little prejudiced!
