Dear Vic,

Thanks for the heads up at this forum. I got your blog’s RSS feed this morning and was sufficiently intrigued by TreeSheets to try it out straight away. Needless to say I am impressed.

For one thing, the program looks remarkably mature, straightforward to use and actually useful.

Indeed it does represent a different organisational paradigm, even compared to other ‘hierarchical spreadsheet’ approaches such as B-liner. I imagine that the ‘tables within tables’ approach will be familiar to people who have written HTML code, but I don’t think I’ve seen it in any kind of PIM.

[Actually, this is partially wrong: I think AI base ( http://www.aibase-cs.com/ ) can place tables within tables, but it’s not its key feature and it’s rather .idiosyncratic compared to TreeSheets’ common sense approach.]

Thanks again; I encourage others in this forum to check the software out and will be writing my own impressions over the next days.

Alexander
