Welcome to IWETHEY!

New Yeah.
So, how do you get a graphical UI in PICK?
New same way anyone else does X:Y co-ordinates

New 80x25 char based? :-)
I don't really know anything about PICK. I worked at a place for about 4 years that was running a PICK emulator (uniVerse?) on HP-UX. It was an HMO that did their claims processing on it and the app was written in PICK BASIC (at least that's what I thought it was called). I worked on the DSS stuff (which were extracts of the PICK files into Sql Server) so I didn't play much with the emulator too much. Didn't really seem that bad, I occasionally had to do some command line scripting and I did set up a few tables/scripts, even some applets, but was by no means an expert.

Years ago when Windows 3.10 came out and I wrote my first database application with the Win16 SDK I thought, this GUI crap will never catch on for head-down data entry. Shows how much foresight I had, doesn't it?
New 1024X768 :)
Just because it is basic doesnt mean they havnt got any rad tools for the front end. Me I have never understood why an AP system needs gui's anyway.
thanx,
bill
