Zane,

I have FINALLY moved the last 3 holdouts in my group from ClarisDraw  
to Powerpoint.  Yes, ClarisDraw is just as powerful but more  
intuitive.   Illustrator has such a steep learning curve and is  
probably overkill for what you need to do.  Appleworks' drawing layer  
just doesn't cut it as a ClarisDraw replacement. I know powerpoint is  
the evil empire, but it works well.  Are there any other suggestions  
for a robust yet easy to use and relatively cheap ClarisDraw  
replacement?

  (We're still running Foxbase 2.1 from 1988 in classic with all  
sorts of problems.  That hell ends with a migration to an Oracle  
database this summer.)
