I have just looked at the Webinar for CaseMap http://www.casesoft.com and it looks really useful for the sort of gathering lots of facts from lots of sources and trying to stucture them into some form of single report work that do. The ability to instantly produce chronologically arranged tables and reports, rather than the manual approach I currently use, also looks really inviting.

It is however, a lot of money, and I can do most of what it does with exsiting tools - even if it takes a bit more work.

However, I am very tempted. If it is as good as it looks I could pay for it with a single job. It seems the headings etc can all be custimised so I could easily lose its legal feel, and make it more suited to my environmental/ecological use. Having said that, as I spend a lot of time working with environmenal legisaltion and preparing cases for Public Inquiries etc, I don’t mind the legal feel.

Any one any thoughts, I am sure some one here has mentioned using it.

I need a bit of encouragement that it is really worth the money - or not.

Graham
