• Could be one of the best if only it worked properly

  Pros

  Clear and uncluttered interface. Very easy to set up; font colour of a todo changes to that of the priority you select. Create a hierarchial tree view using left and right arrows, which means that you can group to-do's. Re-ordering is done with with up and down arrows. Customise font type, size and colour arrows. windows can be full screen or small. With the data file saved in Dropbox in My Documents (on XP), I downloaded the software on two computers, and was pleased to find it synced what i entered on one appeared on the other.

  Cons

  You can make long notes for a task (the program calls the notes "Detail") but while I was entering my data after the installation I found that it was losing my notes haphazardly. Some remained with no trouble, while others I entered repeatedly only to have them gone when I looked again. A lesser bug that I could accept was that the first line of any note appeared in the default size 8 font regardless of whether you reset it before you typed or before you pasted in text of the the size you wanted; it always had to be done a second or third time to get it as you wanted.

  Summary

  I had such high hopes for this software. It is apparently little known and yet it looked as though it was going to be the best one I had found so far, as it suited my needs perfectly. Consequently I was so disappointed when I found it didn't work properly and I was very sad to have no choice but to uninstall it.<br /><br /><span class='notifyMsg'> Updated </span>on Oct 22, 2012<p/>A bad bit of editing has affected the Pros section. Ignore the second word "arrows".
