Ashok Mathur wonders: <<I agree with you that creating a mock GUI before coding the software, would greatly help both the tasks of creating the software and creating the documentation for it. I have been looking for a tool that would allow you to create a quick mock GUI and have not yet found one.>>

A few thoughts on the matter:

Neither of these is as professional as the interface designer that comes with a professional API, but you can get surprisingly good results with both approaches. Best of all, they cost next to nothing (particularly if you already have the software) and are easy to use.
