But as I remember it, it was evidence based rather than event based. It seemed to be primarily a tool for tracking documents and relating pieces of evidence, and there has been some discussion about that here too. That is not the same thing as tracking events. -- Steve Hayes from Tshwane, South Africa Web: http://hayesfam.bravehost.com/stevesig.htm Blog: http://methodius.blogspot.com E-mail - see web page, or parse: shayes at dunelm full stop org full stop uk
