The
Convecto program is designed to store information from a variety of
collections known as Themes and then to sort and locate this information
quickly and easily. The information is normally shown in a grid format similar to
spreadsheets like Excel, Lotus, Quattro Pro and others, but a single-record view is also
available. There are a number of built-in Themes and four custom themes where you can
define the type of collection you wish to use. You can have up to 24 themes active at one
time. A sample of some of the standard themes and location questions is shown
