This is a very interesting question which could be extended as
follows:
"Is it possible to design and write OO code using non-OO
languages"?
A couple of years ago I was involved in a large project that was
designed using OO techniques, and which was implemented in DK. At
the end of the day we had defined trade areas as classes, or in
other words a custom data type, using DK.
It took a lot of work for coding the necessary infraestructure to
support the OO concept. In the end the code ended being pretty
stable and made programming of new applications much easier.
So I guess the answer to your question is "YES. But it is not
simple, and it would involve a very good design and a lot of
programming".

Question for the group....Is is possible to create a custom data type in the
DK just as you would in another language (C++, VBA etc...?) to use
throughout an application?
For a generic example of an existing data type...
Type Coord
lat as double
lon as double
End Type
Then in your application you could use the created type as follows setting
the individual parts as needed.....
dim my_house as Coord
my_house.lat = 40.05
my_house.lon = -83.39
Thanks in advance,
Dave
