If you own a Mac, you must own Xstate!5
There are several personal organizers out there for QuarkXPress, but this one is definately the one to own. Not only does it log time spent on each job, it can set jobs for an accurate accounting of all time spent on a project. It also bookmarks and returns to window positions and sizes each time the document is reopened. Remembering locations of several type files. This is especially convenient when using applications that you want to format from the last one you were working on to your current job. It also keeps track of the folders you frequently use for the elements of a document such as when you do a "get picture" or text. The only problem that I have had with the pictures is it doesn't support all formats, such as BMP at least not on my system. but that's a minor flaw. It does have great quick find and open options also.

The great thing is that it supports MAC QuarkXPress 3.1 or 4.x, but the draw back is that it does not support OSX only 7.6 to 9.x. This would only be a problem if you only use the OSX application exclusivly. But for the options you gain with this organizer it is worth it to use your OS9 side.

Overall this is the only organizer that has given me complete freedom to do what I neede it to do.
