First I want to say a BIG thank you to CoffeeCup I am loving both the pros. :)

One thing that is bugging me, please can anyone tell me how to change the buttons from "Add to Cart" to "View Details"?

I have looked everywhere in SCC pro & SCD pro & can't find it. I am working on a theme that was started in the standard version but I have upgraded it & saved it in SCD pro.

Those options cannot be changed at this time. We do hope to offer that in a future version.

Glad you are enjoying the software. ;)

That's odd I took a look at your swag shop & all your items in the category.php page have "View Details" buttons with links through to the viewitem.php page. Yet in my preview I have one item with "View Details" & all the rest have "Add to Cart" buttons. :/

That is an option in the software. Check the box "force user to choose an option".

Found it. :) Although it is not very clear that is what it means or does. I thought "Require user to choose an option" refered to "optional fields"

Much better than "Add to Cart"

The option isn't just meant to change the text, you are forcing the user to select an option before checkout. Say you sell shirts, you want them to pick a size first otherwise they will just buy a shirt and you have no idea what to send them.
