It makes sense to me that the whole development process should be reviewed not just programming aspects and tools. Are you currently looking at CASE tools? With the new Designer/2000 besides Forms, VB is also generated (IEF CASE tools also generates VB, and soon, if not already, Powerbuilder.) --

I'm very concerned in regards to Products-du-jour from companies that may not be around in a few years. Granted that Delphi has many strong points, but in the next release of the other development tools who's to say that those aspects will not be included. To focus on just one part of the development process maybe a bit short sighted; Leave others to explore IDAPI hell and go with proven methodologies.   Received on Sat Jan 27 1996 - 00:00:00 CET
