DRAFT Application	Program which allowed our analysts to send "draft" copies of analyses to clients for review before those analyses were published. This enabled clients to check the analyses for factual errors and report the findings back to the analysts. The analyst would enter an identifier for an upcoming shareholder meeting, set a due date, and submit the analysis to the client. The client would log in, review the analysis, post any comments, and submit the analysis back to the analyst. The analyst would review the comments, then mark the analysis as complete. Written while I worked for Institutional Shareholder Services. Unfortunately, the app was written to be IE-only (this was not my decision). Some DHTML features do not work in standards-compliant browsers.
