Application Creation Dilemma...

Howdy all,
OK So I have decided to use Blitz to recreate some POS software I wrote a few years ago. The software relies on using DB files to handle TABLE LOOKUP and record information. Some of the parts of the program will be cut a bit so they can run on a 32meg or 64meg POSunit... These units typically run WIN98 at the best.

So if I want to use Blitz... which way should I go? BMax or B+???

Go with Delphi, I wrote a full on POS system in it + you can use Local SQL. www.merlio.com

Im a big fan of Blitz products, but if you want to use SQL statements with a windows gui I would suggest using a software which has these native commands. Perhaps Delphi as Grey Alien suggested, or Purebasic would be another good option.

Hmmm Delphi (like Pascal I believe) I did lousy in Pascal class... too many cute girls! (and over 20 years ago!) Would Delphi work on 95? on WinCE? it may be an option.

Yeah, I have the blitzdata library that'll allow you to use SQL / ODBC, but blitz just really isn't something I'd use for a mission critical database application.

Right tool for the right job.

Yup. Now .NET easily intergrates with OBDC databases or even good ol' VB6.

VB 5 too... {sigh} well I wanted BASIC for ease of readability because it si sooooo much easier to read and decode. PB it looks like may be the thing. Have to check out the OBDC and SQL commits...

And here I was hoping SQLite or Etna would help me do this in BMax or B+... You know, build a tool and not a game.

OK looked at PUREBASIC... I like it BUT...
All the good tutorials look like they are in German. Etna where are you when I need you???
