Oh, yes.  Stacked buttons!  And server-side macros before Push Fields actions 
were possible.  Being able to dispense with all our horrid run-process macros 
was a major step forward.  Before pushes, when you sent data from one form to 
another via a filter Run Process action, it happened in phase 3.  You had no 
assurance that it would happen, and you had no control over the order in which 
they would occur.  It's hard to imagine we built "enterprise-class" 
applications on such a house of cards.

Guys, I'm having a memory lapse.  What was that workflow type or object they 
had back in version 1....  Something like Administrative Action?  I can't even 
remember what it was for.

How about actual Macros which do the same thing on three different
platforms (Windows, UNIX and MAC)!!!!!

We forget the days of now Open Window or stacked buttons.

    You mean you didn't really need all that snap to grid,
boxes/text
trim, grouping, some hope that the Motif/Windows/Mac/ASCII views  
looked the
same? Boy, could we have saved some time...
