I still haven't got round to installing v.5 so I don't know if it has the same limitations, but the Help file for v.4 indicates that you are limited to 9 Focus Groups, each of which can have up to 100 lines of entries. This might not be enough for everyone's requirements, though I can see the logic in Dennis's suggestion. But is anything new really needed? Why not simply create custom events with any name you choose, such as Military, Clergy etc? Or am I missing something?
