Hi Dan,

Sorry for such a long wait in this reply, I have been away a few days.

Thanks for jumping in with your thoughts. I personally found it fairly easy to use and it seemed like the learning curve wouldn't be that bad. And, like you said they did something similar like we did in the old days with if... endif to determine if we were running on a Mac or Windows.

I posted a question on their forum about stability of the product, and the answer I got was this current release it's a winner.
