I heartily agree about Forte's Agent: I have had both the free and the
licensed versions.

I think a small caveat is in order for the technically impatient:  the
documentation is scant--the manual will not be available till the next
version of the licensed variety--and a lot of what you'll get into is
somewhat hit or miss.

On the other hand, I kind of like a product where I find new and very
useful capacities on almost a daily basis.

Yours Sincerely,
