Ok, it’s a strange title for a blog post but so is the circumstance.

It’s been a crazily busy time at HMS the last few weeks.  We’ve welcome a wave of new clients, started big initiatives with some existing clients and of course there’s no stop to the regular work load.  Amongst our biggest news is the release of TimeControl 6.7. I had always known that this last wave of removing ActiveX components from TimeControl would be the most challenging.  There were so many things under the surface that…
