As a writer, I have used mostly Maxthink and Grandview to organize myself. The new MS Word or new Maxthink for windows doesn’t do anything for me. I suspect that MS including free outliners and grammar correctors in their word processor destroyed the morale of these great thinkers who first invented these important programs. Can you imagine how great these outliners may have progressed without interference from big business?
To answer that last reader on Grandview. What you could do (what I do) is to use grandview files up to the 175,000k limit. Move topics around until you have it the way you want it. Then export it into a tab or space form and import it into MS Word 5.0. Word’s outliner is not as good. But By that time, you should already have it organized and can link both GV outlines together in a word processor that will still show the topics should you need to do small changing.
My question is this: On faughnan.com, the sysop mentioned that symantic gave Grandview users - “GV 2.0 users limited resources” to download for Grandview. My problem is that Symantec no longer keeps those resources there. Does anyone know what these programs were? I assume they were plug-ins or converters. Since Symantec had these resources up on their website, I assume they were legal and were only taken down because the sysops may have felt nobody used them anymore.
Does anyone know what these “limited resources for Grandview were?” Or where else they may keep these programs? So I could download them? It would help this die-hard GV user.
THank you, John Btw, this is a great site to devote web space to such an important topic.
