Hello Jos, i have a question:
Wich version of windev should I download to evaluate Web, desktop and mobile development? All 3?
>Here are a few things for VFP developers interested in WinDev that we found useful because of how much we use these features or wanted to have them:
>
>1) WinDev supports the equivalent of macro substitution. Instead of using &some_string_ref you just use curly brackets around the string to evaluate; { some_string_ref }
>
>2) You can allow your users to enter and execute their own WinDev programming code inside your application using User Macro Code (UMC).
>
>3) WinDev supports the using of and saving of Excel files in XLS and XLSX formats.
>
>4) Built in support for multilingual applications
>
>5) Multithreading support. This is great feature for starting processes running in the background and giving user control of the app in the meantime.
>
>6) Seamless database encryption chosen at table design time.
>
>7) Source code protection for distributed apps.
>
>8) 64 bit support
>
>9) PDF file creation. In fact, any table (i.e. a grid) can be saved as an XLS, DOC, PDF, XML, HTML file or sent as an email - its an optional feature of the grid in WinDev.

>Just a few things that appealed to us during the conversion of some apps fwiw.
