I think that is a yes ! Im not sure where the “no” comes in I said “...its connectivity makes it difficult to ignore.”

That is exactly where I am as well.

Yes, I was impressed by A-Plan and would look at that as well, but I think JCVGantt will do what I need for now. Bizarrely, MSProject (which I have) doesn’t sync with Outlook. Well not unless you have MSExchange installed on a server.
