        Not sure what you mean here, all I want to do (for now) is put a form on the web to allow viewing of records in a table. We have the Java Cartridge. I'd like to get it to just dump out Java source code so I can "tweak" on it and compile it with the Sun compiler.

        I'm going to get 3 or 4 new ones this week.

        This will happen this fall. Until then, I'm trying to get a simple web/applet/database program up and running.

        The data base already exists, has several thousand tables, and a few million records in it. All the relationships already exist. My boss would frown if I overwrote it. :) That's why I created a simple table and form. Once I have that running, I can expand on it.

        Can I do all the above (except create the actual database) on existing tables I have reverse engineered and added to the repository?

BOTTOM LINE:         

	I have database. I have forms. I have OWS. I want to put the 
        database & forms into the repository and generate Java
        applets so i can query & update the tables through a web browser.
	Can I do this with Dev2000?

If I can't, I need to know now, so I can start looking for a tool that will do the job before we waste a lot of time & money on Dev2000.

        Thanks...
