Wizards

[Ken Clark]

I've posted this to the generic comp... groups, but have gotten no
help. I'm designing some wizards for my company's software, to
replace some generic add/update screens. I'm looking for some basic
rules regarding what makes a good wizard. IE, what should/shouldn't
be in a wizard, etc.

I've done Amazon/Google searches for this, but have found nothing.

I am not surprised. Your question is very vague. And, as Andrew has
already mentioned, in the wrong newsgroup.
