Thanks for the information, Tom.
#6338 #McSink vs Vantage Message #6381
Is the interface similar, or has it been improved? Am I likely to want the commercial program if I'm not heavily into macros, and I already have a spell checker?
#6353 Adobe Streamline Message #6380
Thanks for the info. Is the interface about the same? Do you find the word processor import/export features useful enough that they are likely to make the program worthwhile for someone who isn't heavily into macros and already has a spell checker (Thunder II).
