RELOADED More from the French company Innelec, sometimes called No Man's Land in this country, which has moved into Amstrad software. CP Graph is a basic graphic drawing utility program, which on first glance looked good. The blurb assured me that no handbook was necessary to use the handbook and true enough, I quickly set up a pie chart for 12 items under various headings which was drawn quickly and colourfully. Each section of the pie was labelled and expressed as a percentage of the whole. Fine. Then troubles began: pressing Esc was supposed to take me back to the beginning, the screen did nothing and I had to reload the thing again. On another occasion typing in some entries quickly caused me to accidently break into the program and again it had to be reloaded. Whether these were errors on my part or bugs in the program. 1 can't say for sure, but in any event it shouldn't happen - these are basic flaws in reliability that are simply not acceptable.
