These types of programs (especially AW) have a long history
starting I believe with /// Easy Pieces. I love AW 5 (for the
Apple ][) CW4 (can't talk about CW5) and AW6. Each have had their
strengths. I am not a word processing maniac, I am not a
spreadsheet maniac, I am not a database maniac - so why do I need
all the bloated bells and whistles when a nicely thought out
package can do more than 90% of what I need.
As an example (not that it is a good one) our business uses a MS
Access solution. Fortunately I had a bit of influence at the very
beginning. Everyone in my organization uses it except me. I use
AW6 database - a bit cumbersome at times but I save sooo much
time in not having to retype addresses etc. etc. for reports
because of the integration. Like you keep saying it just works!
AW is a good thing!!
