UR/Abundance TG>continues to evolve. I've played with BBL/ABUN but was never quite happy with it. I implemented some of it in my own database words. I always felt that Roedy's user interface was a bit to rigid for my needs. I'd like to see something mor along the lines of a spreadsheet where you can cursor or mouse all over the screen in any order. I seem to remember that he was working along those lines but I haven't seen his latest version. Were you able to port all of the jaunting, and control structures?
