It sucked in our code base without a hiccup, and the customer support was excellent--on a part with ACT's. Where it fit really well was as a "programmer's assistant". If I needed to do some quick lookups, procedure call chains, or diagrams, that info was readily available from the tool. While I'm not currently working on a project that needs a tool like that, if/when I get back onto one, I will definitely want U4A in my arsenal. A _very_ satisfied customer, Marc A.
