thanks, you are right - i am working on it.
I wish people would give me more comments like yours

I tend to reach for Excel for anything like this I need to do but I daresay some will use your tools. I spent all of 4 minutes on it. It looks good and the forms seems to work technically. There is merit in having a number of tools in one place, even simple ones like a calendar.

But I really didn't understand what much of it was for. What was I supposed to type under "Under"? Not sure what index or index rate was either. May be me being thick but I won't be the only one. *Note

You have help files including a new user guide "In progress" so I assume this will provide all the necessary information. But never underestimate the limited attention span or ignorance of your users. Faced with having to spend a whole 5 extra minutes reading your files on a sunny day many will say "sod it" and reach for the Excel. My suggestion would therefore be to provide as much really simple context sensitive help as possible. Trivia: Don't have input boxes same colour as form, it looks like they are not enabled.

Note: Later noticed "developed especially for architects and building contractors". Maybe that's why I don't understand the purpose of the fields. Will all building contractors? Main comment still stands, assume all users are complete idiots and one can never go far wrong.

I couldn't work out what this was meant to mean:

how much development time did you spend on this?

[g246]

hi everyone,
i developed a program for contractors and i would appreciate any feedbacks -
especially about the contracts module.
This module purpose is to let you know the state of your expected income and cashflow.
Its very simple, you add the contract, then you add the required payments - The dates and sum of payments due as you agreed about with the customer.
When the customer pay you add the payment.
The program will calculate the contract state and tell you how much he owe.
