It's a lot better than the previous version. Not sure about the out of
business part -they keep adding more features.

I did have tables at one time but the feedback was negative. Folk wanted do
this and that because of, etc. I think that there is no single best way to
present the info. I tried to make the process understandable , after that
the user should find his/her own approach to making it all work in their
workflow.

I did a tutorial on the X number of options for the CMS dialog. some like it
and others think that I'm implying that they are stupid - I can't win :-(
Let me see an example of what you mean and I'll give it serious thought.
