Salut Fabien,

yes, that was a good strong system, you could store your Source-Code in a (in

that case xBase) Database.
And it was as good and cloud be so dangerous, as VBS is to day.

But it had to die, it was not Windows compatible, it was linear driven and not
by
events. ( What I think still to day is not so bad for Data requirement Programms)


Now a days I see the first steps back to that   'DOS' Systems .
With Field-Valedation.
Because why should a clerk, who has to typ in datas into a programm, use a
mouse ?
He has to fill Field by Field, and if there is no value to be required, he can
step
over by CR, to the next.
And in the end he can say 'save' or 'quit'

Like I said before, I saw signes that this will comme back.
Like Terminals came back.

Amicalement
Charlie
