hello all, I would like to hear from those using I-D4GL, how are integrating the programs to the end user. I mean, how the end user access those new programs, using the same features, at least mouse support. I know that you can use a 4GL program, but IMHO I'd prefer a Menu system designed especifically the this purpose as was INFORMIX-Menus (Fourgen Menus) This issue is important when running on UNIX, because in Windows environments we could use program groups and other stuff. Have anyone of you tried to run a program from a Windows icon, for example? I did it, but each time it has to log on UNIX and then run the program. This scenario is not good enough in terms of performance. Thanks!
