Someone said a contentious statement is required to spark discussion. OK- here's a thought-
I am sure there are quite a few people like me out there in Finale-land still happily using WinFin 2001 or earlier. I seem to recall someone asking a question on Fin 97! I had one person suggest I should not waste valuable list time by asking questions about 'out-of-date' technology. I also use 'Simple entry' almost exclusively. My reason is the same reason I drive a 1976 Mazda Convertible! I know it well, and it is more than adequate for my requirements! Fin 2001 does everything I require, doesn't seem to have too many bugs - those that are there I now know how to cludge! It certainly doesn't have all the bells and whistles (and bugs!) of 2007 etc, but for my purpose it's more than enough. I tried 2004- got all totally confused with the dangly bits hanging off my cursor- and happily reverted to 2001 after a couple of weeks. I can see the problem with lack of compatibility with users of later versions, but I can live with that! OK- I'm not as fast as most others- but what I do looks very slick, and is very happily accepted by all users. As I start my 70th year (today) I suspect I will never again be in a 'time pressure to finish' situation- so I'll plod happily on. There you go- I'll crawl back under my rock. Be interested to hear what is the *earliest* version still in regular use! Cheers K in Cold Capital of OZ Keith Helgesen. Ph: (02) 62910787.
