If all you need to do is add a few numbers together, any calculator will suffice. However, if you require trigonometry expressions, then obviously you will require a more 'featureful' calculator. I have used MS Project in the past, and found it to be a rather useful tool. The learning curve was not as extensive as I had first feared. I certainly did not find it to be over burdened by an excessive number of unused features. In fact, I rather appreciated the fact that they were available if I should ever require them. In any case, check out: http://www.openworkbench.org. They have a nice piece of software form what I have heard. I have never actually used it however, although I plan to at the next appropriate opportunity. -- Gerard Seibert gerard@seibercom.net Grown-ups never understand anything for themselves, and it is tiresome for children to be always and forever explaining things to them.
