Thank you for the reply, Pierre. I do have much of the learning curve behind me, and I have to remember that I did not learn Ecco in a day.

Ecco has a kind of simple elegance, but then Ecco was not designed to do what IQ can do. Also, IMHO, Ecco has the best help files that I have ever seen written for a program. There is something about how the help files were written that made them extremely easy for me to understand what I needed to accomplish a task at hand. I should probably put a bit more time into learning IQ, as it seems to address much of what I want in a program.

If you know Ecco
well, you've got 75% of the learning curve behind you...
IQ is like Ecco + web
capture, + multiple parents + equations + pivot tables + more flexible UI
