Currently working on: Admin - Change log - It's been too long without any documentation!
I realise most of you are using external VBS editors at the moment, so the minimum objective is to at least bring it up to a standard where external editors are no longer required. Please suggest your favourite/Most used feature please! A customised version of VBS. Then the real work of extending the Code View Editor (CVE) into the Table Editor can begin. In the future only the most basic level of understanding of VB will be required.

Status key:
Done? - It's never over till the fat lady sings on release day! (Just don't ask, I don't know 
)
WIP - Work in Progress, something needs to be looked at again.
To Do - I hope this list will grow from your suggestions 
BUG - I got it wrong, badly, sorry.
I am trying to go for function over form but sometimes they overlap. I have been spending a lot of time reading the VP source code hence my slow start. There's a lot of dusty old corners of this code (10+ years) It's just like AMH and sometimes you can get lost!
The above list is incomplete without your suggestions and changes in priorities, and I look forward and value your input.
All the Best
