>Has anyone used Powerbuilder? I'd really like to know how it compares to VFP ? And what you can do with VFP that you cannot with Powerbuilder? I need to be able to prove that VFP is better than anything else presently out there....

I took a class on PowerBuilder 3.0 about 1.5 years ago,
I think they are on version 5 now. Everything looked fine
in the class, minus the slow time it took to do things, which
was blamed on the types of computers we were using (not true).

I then attempted to create an application and ran into nothing
but problems: Data structure getting corrupted, libraries getting
corrupted and slow to do anything. And when I say the data structure
got corrupted, I mean if you didn't have a backup, you had to start
over from scratch.

Lastly, I hear that 5.0 still has similar problems.
Thanks,
