Thanks Chris this is exactly what I was looking for. One of the main pieces of software I am looking for is software to create templates for calculations that carries out the calculations and creates a nice report. The software I have seen can do one or the other well but not both The other software for such a distribution would be: Cad / Cam Project management Finite element Programming Office I am sure there are others but this would be a good start.
