>In addition to speed in development and runtime there is also the issue of later modifications. Let's say there are two developers and one prefers to code classes in prgs and the other to code them visually. If later one of them leaves the company which method allows for the most easily done modifications in the future? I know some developers that prefer to put their classes in prgs and others that prefer to do everything visually. I think that generally a new programmer coming on board would be more successful immediately having to modify classes designed visually. That has only been my experience though. Which method most benefits the company and the customers in the longrun?

For me the size of the methods also is an issue: when you have lots of small functions, I am faster using prg's, since the screen space is used better and without switching screens. When the method code of single methods nearly fills your screen I find the vcx based approach more productive.
