Hi Mark, I'm NOT complaining. I love TR and use it alot. I agree it is a
better
program. I also think "working guys" is important, but I also happen to
think
getting the log RIGHT is very important. It would be very nice if you could
fix
an incorrect entry quickly. Fixing the log properly with a good built in
editor
is going to take just as much time as writing on paper or doing the control
N thing. You wouldn't have to resort to that if you had the option of
fixing
the log on the fly. It seems to me that a BASIC function of a logging
program should be the ability to make changes to the log as required.
It's not a choice of fix it or work'em.
Tree has made the program extremely flexible and configurable. I personally
think it would be a better program if you could properly edit the log
during a contest. Either way I'm keeping TR as the program of
choice... Hi Hi I don't know Wordstar....73 Bill N9BR
