I wouldn't ask the list this question except Via Systems told me they no
longer have a programmer on staff so can't answer this question.
Does anyone besides me use Viaduct and make use of programming with
Visual Data/Basic to manipulate Windows forms?
I really like Viaduct and the forms
Harold,
I just Googled Via Systems and got this:

Followup: I dug a little further and ViaDuct was bought by EDP in 1993.

Hi All -

SecureCRT has any GUI support. While AccuTerm's GUI is substantially
different than ViaDuct, you could probably build wrapper subroutines in
BASIC to emulate the ViaDuct functions. I only had a brief look at Visual
Harold,
I see that Peter replied and he is the Accuterm guru so I'll give you a user's
perspective.
The GUI designer was easier for me to learn than Visual Studio and mv.net. The
GUI designer creates the MV Basic code to display the form and stub sections
for
each control (prompt) and event.
