Registering ProjeX

If you have the freeware version of ProjeX you do not need to register it, however it does have limited functionality. To use the full functionality you must purchase it.

What does the full version have that the freeware version doesn't?

The freeware version of ProjeX does have restrictions/limitations -why? The freeware version was originally written because, in 1996, when the author searched the web for a simple tool in Excel to produce Gantt charts he could not find anything out there. The freeware version has all the functionality that he required then and more. Since then users have requested more, this takes programming time so the author charges for that functionality.
