  15. Well, I can't seem to find my previous posting, so it may be that my news 
  16. server died...
  17.  
  18. Anyway, I am interested on any opinions on Panorama II. I am especially 
  19. interested in the scripting and lookup features.
  20.  
  21. Has anyone had experience with this? What problems have you encountered? 
  22. How does Panorama II compare to FileMaker Pro? (FileMaker Pro 2.0, if 
  23. you've seen it...) Key areas are power of macros and scripts, 
  24. pseudo-relational capabilities through lookups, ease of use - especially 
  25. with layout design, multi-user database functionality, and company 
  26. tech/customer support.
  27.  
  28. Thanks,
  29.
