All properly designed wizards: a. Tell you at the start what they are going to do (solves problems 1 and 3). b. Allow you to go back (solves problem 2). c. Make you aware of any unexpected consequences to a decision (solves problem 3 some more). d. Don't crash! :) In fact if they don't tell you what they are going to do, and allow you to go back I wouldn't call them a wizard. (I still hate wizards though, especially the amusingly named "wizard wizard" that comes with VB6). It's interesting that a UI concept that is intended to make computers easier to use is so universally hated. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: PGPfreeware 6.5.3 for non-commercial use <http://www.pgp.com> iQA/AwUBPEQi04Fpv9f1Mr0YEQLycgCg1hX9xNN9iP++QSgtZXIZ4bF4cYUAniKN NtibHBCZtiZ5SiWGq9CE2Jf0 =LEfO -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
