The big thing for me is verification/walkthroughs of manual and/or automated procedure.
Number one rule: No one, I repeat no one, is going to invest alot of time or enery in verifying written text - other than obligatory minor stuff. I have to make it easy for the reviewers: I walkthrough easy to read data flow diagrams.

Hello Everyone,
This is my first posting to this forum, so I?ll be brief.
I?ve started to construct various checklists to check my work before I send it out; you know, to remind myself and catch things. I?m wondering if anyone out there would be willing to share their checklists: Editorial (grammar, style, etc.), Tools Checklist (Frame, Word, etc.), as building my own, I am bound to miss something.
Thanks much,
Lone
