Dear Bill, There is another way without using Eclipse of the Android SDK!!! Have a look at our MobiForms rapid application development tool.
MobiForms is the world's first rapid application development tool designed for Google Android smartphones. Additionally MobiForms apps will run on other platforms such as Windows Mobile without any changes. With MobiForms there is no need to download and learn Eclipse, the Android SDK, Java or XML. MobiForms offers one compact tool for development and deployment with most programming done with drag and drop. MobiForms is ideal for creating database orientated business apps. Apps that would traditionally take hours or days to write can be created in minutes with MobiForms. For more information please have a look at http://www.mobiforms.com You may also be interested to learn that we have recently added Google Android support for our MobiForms Sync Server. This enables online synchronisation and offline database buffering for apps where connectivity may not be guaranteed such as for Field Service, Surveys and Risk Assessments.
