I have used Legacy since version 3. I'm one of those "smucks" who doesn't know anything about programming except that it is not simple to get everything to work correctly and still have so many variances. I'm also one of those who spends time learning to use the program by watching and reading

Great support reply,  Michelle!  Is 20 people in two months with major things they don't like, out of tens of thousands users, a large pct of unhappy users? I don't think so.  If users feel there is a better product they should get off this forum and switch products.    Let those who are here
