HyperScript Tools Flame

Has anyone else developed a user interface centered around the Wingz spreadsheet? My company has developed a large interface that enhanced and was centered around a user's ability to use the spreadsheet interface. Informix has decided that they will offer two product, HyperScript Tools Development and Runtime. They keep telling me I should purchase the Runtime until I mention that my users need spreadsheet access. What did they think people needed???? Wingz was a spreadsheet application!!!!! People probably developed around the spreadsheet tool. Thus offering a Runtime with out a user spreadsheet interface is idiotic!!! I have heard that they are now considering releasing the Wingz 2.0 product that is still discussed in the HST manuals, but doesn't exist. If they offered a runtime with a spreadsheet tool, that would make a lot of sense. I feel Wingz was a spreadsheet ahead of its time when it was released in ?1985? (I think). Wingz is much better than Lotus 1-2-3 on Sun, although it does have a few quirky problems. I recommend everyone to contact Informix and press for a runtime spreadsheet product. The other problem I have is their pricing scheme. They are offering a $199 upgrade from Wingz to the HST development package as long as you buy the $200 support package as well. That means that for every copy of Wingz I need to upgrade to the Development package (since Runtime won't work), I need to pay $399. I currently have a 17 user license for Wingz and only pay @ $400 a year for phone support!!! It is unfortunate that Informix does not feel that they are in the spreadsheet business anymore, since Hyperscript Tools looks like it has the best spreadsheet interface available on the Unix Motif platform.
