In Control 4.03 is the best outliner I have ever used. It’s database & calendar features only made it better as an overall organizer.

A friend of mine once told me he had organized ALL of the information in his life in an outliner—it was ThinkTank. I didn’t believe this was possible until I tried IC.

I hope that the current owners of IC (Attain Corp is now defunct) will make it available. I’ve used it under OS 9, but some users have reported that the alarm function. Amazingly, for a program from the early 80’s, IC had document & URL linking. It was incredibly fast, even on a PB 180, and it fitted onto one floppy. It must be a tour de force of programming.

I am, somewhat sadly, replacing In Control with Idea Keeper
(http://www.plumisland.com/ideakeeper) (for outlining & organizing) and Consultant (for calendaring & contacts).
