MDI child forms tiling etc. Error trapping. 'Nag' screen support for shareware authors.

DISTRIBUTION ------------ This program is "FreeWare" and may be used and distributed as you wish. It incorporates some ideas/code from other authors and these are acknowledged in the appropriate module. We hope that you will find it useful.

Or does your company want to track and monitor the progress of any work activity? We market a system which could be of interest to you. PROGRESS is available for download from the Business section of the Windows Shareware forum on Compuserve (filename PRGRSS10.ZIP). It's a large program, so in the same section you will also find the help files and documentation as PRGSSDOC.ZIP which is quicker to download and will give you a good idea of the functionality of PROGRESS.
