One star is too many....
PLEASE...save yourself the headache! Read version7 reviews and decide for yourself if you really have the time to deal with such a program or company.I've sent Individual all the links about their customers' experience. I don't think it will do any good but I think they should know the percentage of people writing negative reviews on their products.My next site to "update" will be Cnet and Consumer Reports (if they have a section for something like this).Avoid this program at all costs. I will update you all if they EVER reply to my e-mail. However, I will not hold my breath.

Should have read reviews
Should have paid attention as to what type of program this was for. Windows Xp, really now. Don't bother to buy this it will not load right and there is no help.....

Do Not Buy This Software Package
I also use Punch Pro and all I wanted was a basic package to sketch simple floor plans. Total 3D can't even do that. You can't choose the direction of a staircase. As another reviewer said, this software package is a rip off !!!! DO NOT BUY IT.

Waste of money
If I could have rated it a negative star, I would have. I had problems from the start with this program. When I contacted their technical support I got no help and they finally just blew me off. I wouldn't own anything else from Individual Software even if I was paid to. What a crappy experience.

Software sets new standards for low quality
I have never used any software that was worse than this. It plain does not work. It is junk.
