Several years ago I purchased the AS/Set case tool for use on the AS/400, due to
the fact my two programmer (including myseslf) shop was going to a one 
programmer
shop.  I found the learning curve great, but it did do some good things.
Unfortunaly, about the time I got past the learning curve, it went out of
existance to the public!

Sure shakes your faith in Case tools!
