It will be helpful if you could specify what typr of gears are you looking at.
If sprocket gear is what you are after, I have good experience with Sprocketeer 2.0 (http://www.idleamusements.com/Software/sprocketeer2.htm)

In my hunt i found a very easy and good program for $26 that does all that I need. It is called gear generator. It can be found @ woodgears.ca/gear.

Thanks al

I too have used Sprocketeer with good results. Especially on 35, 50 and 80 series roller chain.
