>>>>Have you tried Homesite as an editor? My friends tell me it is great! We are not allowed to use it at work and I have never gotten around to buying it for home. I do not want to buy every tool in town. My wife will kill me!

>>>No, I haven't tried it. I assume you have corporate standards which forbid the use of non authorized tool. :(

>>Yes - we have to use tools that another group has approved. The other group does not write code! Such is life!

>See, same story I went through a few years ago. One of my task was to write case studies to justify new tools in the company. Basically, tools that does the job and I mean "Does the job!". ;) For example, Visual FoxPro was not approved. I however used it to build prototypes in a few hours where the estimated time for someone else used to work with another tool would have been weeks. Of course, that couldn't be mentioned at presentation time. But, it does represent very well a problem with some companies.

Sounds like here. I have given demos of West Wind, and Visual MaxFrame Professional. In one hour and 12 minutes I had a web page running that took 40 hours to code in Visual Interdev using ASP. I gave the demos from my own lap top as we cannot load VFP on company computers. It only created friction so I have given up the task of trying to suggest something and why. At home I do as I please so I cannot worry about such things.
