    3. >2. There should be an option for auto open of a chosen database, as in v.2. Planning on it. >3. The Arial font in General and Event Notes gives very uneven spacing, so >the text looks strange, some spaces too narrow, some too wide. ?? Looks fine to me. But you can change the font if you wish. >4. Nice to see a Find & Replace in the notes, but will there not be a >Global Search & Replace to develop further the Global Search in v.2? Yes. (On the Tools Menu - not there yet.) >5. The Free Format in events is an interesting addition, but I would love >to see the Free Format text placed just BEFORE the date(s) rather than just >AFTER, and I would prefer the text NOT have parentheses surrounding it. In >that way, I could get "John DOE lived at least from 1900 to 1905 at... ", >which looks better than "John DOE lived from 1900 to 1905 (at least) at... >", which is misleading. Thanks for this suggestion. I think I should provide some options: place free format date before or after date in story, to include or not include parenthesis. >6. Suggest including an option for importing User Dictionary and Standard >Events from v.2. instead of having to do it mechanically. Yes. Will do this also for events. User Dictionary is CUSTOM.VTC. You can copy the one from your ver 2. But you do bring up a point about the upgrade process. It likely would get overwritten if we allowed Ver 3 to be installed over Ver 2.
