That was an excellent account of Corel's failings ... if looks like it came out of a project management textbook describing how _not_ to do a project. It was clear from the start that from upper levels down there was no clear consensus what was being implemented. Applix more cautiously approached the Java-migration and chose the correct model (client/server) and migration plan - gradual Java migration. Java was in it's infancy (prior to JDK 1.1 + JFC) and Corel should have realized that a pilot project or gradual migration was the way to go ... not betting the farm on a complete re-write of their entire office products in a new language. Cheers James
