 | Hi,
It would thrill me if someone in this forum has timberline software for
construction experience. Here's my predicament: I work part time for a mom
and pop construction company that uses Timberline construction software
version 5 I think from 1997. The wife of the operation is the one who is
training me on the software and she doesn't know enough to teach me some of
the things I really need to know, will not pay for an upgrade to better
software or tech support. If someone here has knowledge in this area and
could give me some simple instruction. I am good with software, but better
with GOOD software, and could easily understand any instruction. Thanks! in
advance.

You have an internal administrative issue rather than a pure technical one.
If the wife was the one looking after the books via Timberline before
you were hired, then she should be the one with enough knowledge to show
you how they want it done.
The key there is "how they want it done"... IF this is the situation.
If you are good with software, you can be good with any software. The
results you obtain won't be your fault, but rather a limitation of the
software you are being provided.

The guy could also call the software company and tell them
the problem, and ask for a tutorial disc or manual if they
have one.. a good software company will be understandng.
