texte = Jim,Sorry to see you leave. But please consider that the video training and serial number problems are not representative of this list, its members or this product. WebCatalog is a superior product even at it's current price, AND the documentation is adequate (not good or great) for most people.I've looked at Icat and used products such as tango/butler and tango/filemaker and I just don't think you are going to be able to get the flexibility and speed (and ease of use - learn SQL, then try to tell me how hard webDNA is... I love webDNA's ease of use) that most professional sites require. Plus I spent over $1,000 to travel to Toronto, Canada to take training to use Tango to learn to do things that WebDNA has simple commands for.Every piece of software you try will have problems. No manual is ever complete. And the mark of a good widely used product is the availability of third party training materials.Good Luck, Paul>Well I have heard enough..... and I tried out the demo ....and I have >read with interest the problems not only with WebCatalogue but with the >guts they have had to even think about charging $800 or so dollars for a >training video to teach how to use the simple???? product at a very high >price. > >Not for me...
