This is a great tool Ricky! I have been using this tool for almost as long as I have been writing my blog. It is awesome that it is used off line. I have noticed that at times that it doesn't upload pictures correctly all the time but for the most part it is a great tool to use.

Re: Interesting article

Gabi, great article. One thing that everyone may overlook is your workflow within the software. Everytime time you are running your mice to one side of the screen then to the middle then to the other side is eating up precious time. When you are in a feature, right click to accept features, set up your shortcut bar so that it benefits you the most. Just some ideas, I am doing a presentation at our local user group on this so it has been on my mind as of lately. Keep up the great work and good luck with getting ready for the test.

Awesome post Gabi! I have been working with Matthew Cummins (Brian's co-worker) on TactonWorks and it is really awesome. We actually gave a proposal to our company to purchase it and they have.

Thanks for the update Jeff.
Do you know what the dll file is that Windows x64 is having problems with? I am running Vista x64 and I am having a problem with ntdll.dll crashing Office 2007 all the time. Let me know if you know any other details.
Thanks
