I find it well written and easy to use. That said, I've also used SuperFly - enjoying a few problems due to operatigin system. SuperFly is much more robust that Fly-2000. If a person is looking for an easy to use program to maintain ONLY fly patterns then Fly-2000 would be a good choice. But, if you would also like to maintain a list of materials then SuperFly is the only choice. Fly-2000 does not handle materials. > >Fly-2000 has some great search capabilities but the searches are dependent on the data that is input. In other words after you enter the fly pattern recipe (which is free text -- like an email message, format it how you would like) you still have to enter the search info -- this is something that I do not use. I can search by Nymph (with a sub category) or Dry, or Streamer, or salmon fly, all with sub categories) but that is the extent. I can also search by Tier and Originator. > >If anyone would like to see what a report from Fly-2000 looks like email me (off list) and I'll send an acrobat PDF file to you. > >FYI I'm working on my own Fly Pattern, Materials... program (looking at the best features from both SuperFly and Fly-2000). I would be interested in some feature requests and possible beta testers. -- beta testing will not start until the end of February -- depending on the feature list feedback I get. > ----- Original Message ----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Tuesday, December 03, 2002 5:42 AM > Subject: [VFB] Fly-2000 > > > http://www.fly-2000.net/index.html > While stumbling around the net this morning I came across a reference to a fly tying program called Fly-2000.
