There is obviously a time and a place for each particular type of user interface.Moving to a graphically based environment will not be panacea to all your programming problems; dGE came about to give Xbase programmers access to graphical tools and perhapas to leave behind their older interfaces and text-based interfaces.Abandoning any previous style of programming is not the best of ideas in my opinion,since most of the best results that can be achieves with dGE are gained when integrating its facilities with your existing Xbase applications.
