>The biggest thing with Dabo is how it handles data. Like Fox it does a great job. Not having to code the association between a control and data is very big for me. Dabo just handles all of it. Most (if not all) of the web stuff does not attempt to deal with data for Crud apps. In fact, most of the new stuff like Flutter, Flet are just single page apps. They don't allow for multi-pages being open at the same time or opening the same page multiple times - like we can do with desktop apps. Of course they work because often we only want straight line websites (go forward or backward is allowed). When someone comes up with a web development tool that matches fox or Dabo I'll be first in line - for sure.

Back in 2003 I took a brief look at C#, even had McNeish's book, and was vastly disappointed at the utter lack of .controlsource... I was like what? You're stealing programmers from Fox on both ends and don't have a .controlsource? Is this a joke? And then the everlasting dance with at least four solutions in external libraries which would do the binding for you, coming into fashion and going out of it...

And in Dabo two guys did the job of having a .controlsource on each control in what, two-three months? And M$ couldn't do it in 20 years? Something's rotten in Denmark...

Yes!
