Hi Rudy First, for a Windows based editor download the free mvDeveloper from my website. It's written in Delphi, uses UniObjects and it's lean and quick. And free, or did I say that?
Second, download my primer on 'writing your first universe application' from the U2UG site. I know you're not new to UniVerse, but it is really a primer for using UniObjects.Net with VB.Net. That might give you some insight. Using .Net for developing screens is fine so long as you have a sensible grounding. For fun take a look at SilverLight - it's easier than Adobe Flex since it has a sensible programming language behind it (C# not actionscript) or otherwise regular Windows forms will do the job - much easier if you can use permanent sessions (like telnet) rather than web apps, especially since you can use regular locking and should be able to reuse much of your existing code. But read my articles on data binding to objects (not to datasets) and using LINQ with UniVerse XML, in the latest Spectrums before going down that route. Regards Brian Hi List, I need some recommendations. We've been coding using our UV text editor. You know the routine, copy and paste from 1 program to another. I have finally been given the green light to get pricing on a tool for development, creating forms (screens), document as you go, reusability, gui-izing, etc. Any recommendations? I was thinking of SB+, Redback, and even U2.NET (Since we have access to visual studio). We're a development team of 3 for about 100 UV users. If your using any of the newer development tools, I'd really like your opinion, good or bad. thx, rudy Rudy Cooper Technical Project Lead Sage Publications Inc. 2455 Teller Road Thousand Oaks, CA. 91320 USA T: 805.410.7724 www.sagepub.com Los Angeles | London | New Delhi Singapore | Washington DC The natural home for authors, editors & societies Please consider the environment before printing this email ------- u2-users mailing list u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/ ------- u2-users mailing list u2-users@listserver.u2ug.org To unsubscribe please visit http://listserver.u2ug.org/
