Dear R:Base Folks
On behalf of Bill Downall, Sami Aaron and myself, I send our overdue but not
less sincere thanks to everyone who helped us make the October conference a
great success in every way:
* We raised over $1600 for Project Bundle Up, doubled by Razzak’s generous
donation
* We heard from a wide variety of developers, users and R:Base staff and
got a wealth of new information (see summary below). Especially great were
all the people presenting for the first time!!
* We had full cooperation from everyone, generous offers of help and
volunteers whenever we needed them to make being an MC a painless and fun
experience!
* We were able to express our sincere thanks and appreciation in concrete
terms to Razzak and the entire RBTI team for the wonderful tools we have
been given and their incomparable responsiveness to us. Thanks to Claudine
Robbins and Adriana Montano, we gave lovely gifts to all of them and a huge
card signed by everyone at the conference!
Those who attended, feel free to add more to my notes!
SUMMARY OF CONFERENCE PRESENTATIONS:
SATURDAY OCTOBER 23
NEW PRODUCT: R:BASE 7.5, Part I – RAZZAK
Razzak demonstrated 7.5 in several parts. Several of the key new features
will be:
Explorer – right click and show hints under icons or hide icons
Multiple Language options available
Browser: if you mouse over a note field the whole text is shown
Enter works to move in browser
Forms
New Caption Toolbar options
Tabs that are not relevant (no data for those tables) can be suppressed This
is a new PROPERTY command feature
Themes – totally different look and feel without changing the form –
R:Themes – 30 bundled in – will most likely be add on product, though there
was discussion about including it with R:Base instead
Reports
Pause box is build into the report:
New Report “EEPS” – programs that will run on start, after start a report:
for
example, a custom PAUSE on screen while the report is building – SEE BILL
DOWNALL PRESENTATION BELOW
Report generated with PDF can have password with it – can be case sensitive
- Low level – view only
- High level – can print, copy etc.
Table of contents in PDF generated report!! – Bookmarks!
Generate report in HTML, XHTML and table of contents works the same way
There will be a fee to upgrade to 7.5
Any registered user can request to be a beta tester
REMOTE CONNECTIVITY – ALEXEI NICOLINI
Alexei demonstrated LIVE a dazzling Pocket PC application linking directly
to a server with Terminal Services client.
Terminal services Client faster with 256 colors
TSC comes with Pocket PC 2003
NO programming for Pocket PC needed
He recommended Pocket PC with integrated Bluetooth
Pick PC w/ Integrated Wi-Fi
Advantages:
Processing occurs on the server side
No limit to memory
Disadvantages:
Must be connected to LAN or internet
Form size on the Pocket PC is 220 x 267
Nicolai demonstrated again his powerful utility SENDFILE.EXE that makes
sending / receiving files “idiot proof” for users. It can be used from
within R:Base simply with:
LAUNCH Sendfile.exe renew – simple R:Base command
- looks for file RENEW.TXT in install directory -
LOOK WHAT I’VE DONE WITH R:BASE– MARK KWOKA – “Vera Wang Runs on R:Base”
Mark demonstrated a beautiful, elegant R:Base 7.1 application using bar
coding and simple, easy to use yet attractive R:Base forms. The application
was created for one of the world’s best known creators of custom wedding
gowns.
DESIGNING DYNAMIC SEARCH OPTIONS IN R:BASE: Razzak
The sample form on the CD is Form SearchCriteria in RRBYW10
This elegant example showed a form with 4 radio buttons: For each radio
button that you want to search by, PROPERTY command displays the correct
control and hides the others, based on an “on click” EEP for the radio
button.
Razzak demonstrated how to set this up. Useful tips included:
Action from menu – internal eep sets up vars needed
On after start – variables set to null, and set visible PROPERTY to false
for ALL controls
To avoid flashing when the form opens: PROPERTY WIDTH 0 AS LAST STEP when
creating the form – after everything is set up and working correctly
Once this is done, you can still edit the form using the menu to display all
controls and then edit as needed.
THE ON CLICK EEP for the radio button just makes the various controls
visible / not visible:
The “Search” Button on the form does the work of each option
TO use the form, sequence is:
Click radio button selection – the correct control comes up
Fill in what the search asks for
Click on Search
I noticed an interesting change in programming style: define vars for the
form in the BEFORE START EEP, not in the code calling the form.
The Component ID: will have no limit in # characters in 7.5
CREATING A CONSISTENT VISUAL INTERFACE – EMMITT DOVE - BLUE RIDGE PAPER
COMPANY
Emmitt shared some excellent tips on how to do this and demonstrated his
beautiful results:
The Hard way – set color / font properties of every form
Easy way – Use Themes in RBASE 7.5
Preparation:
Conceptualize the visual theme – look at established graphical identity
Web site
Stationary
Emmitt used the company logo as a background for EVERY screen
Prepare some samples and show to your users – involve marketing, graphics
design department
Start with form with most of the object types you will use
Get colors set to your satisfaction
Add to custom colors if you create one
Add each object type to a “toolbox” form
Use cut and paste copy controls from this custom form to the one now being
developed!!
Tool box:
Create a program with templates for each of your commands (PAUSE / DIALOG /
CHOOSE) Call it 0.0; in RBEDIT set up to list all files and then this will
always the first in the list
He sets up forms with objects having GENERIC Captions – then he uses
PROPERTY to assign caption values
Use a standard background on all forms
Emmitt created ONE form with a standard background – matching the background
of main menu
One AMAZING example was a ONE TIME ON entry to row EEP for this form which
creates a command to RUN the parameter sent it – executes it and then
CLOSEWINDOW – all controlled from the form! IN other words, this ONE form
serves as a background for ALL programs in the application and the EEP
starts ALL menu choices. You have to see the sample on the CD to full
appreciate how elegant and simple this is!
Old way of getting standards:
More work – pay attention to all details
BUT – you have complete control over the application
New way: R:Themes:
Less work
But you can’t control all controls
Still must deal with standards for CHOOSE, PAUSE, DIALOG
A BEAUTIFUL APPLICATION!
NEW PRODUCT: R:THEMES: RAZZAK
Is add on product with DLL
If you have it installed, when you open FORM PROPERTIES get a new tab for
THEME and select one of the 30 themes
Controls the look and feel of:
Title bar at top
Bit Button
Combo Box
DBNavigator
Many more!
What doesn’t it change?
Test by put all controls on a form!
If you put a custom color on a button it is overridden by the theme; if you
have an image on the button and don’t want the old color to show around it –
make it transparent
Must apply themes to ONE form at a time
RBTI will help you create a new theme if you want one
See sample on CD to run and look at all 30 to decide the look and feel
IF YOU design forms with R:Themes – customer must also have R:Themes
If you buy Runtime / R:Compiler it DOES have unlimited use
NEW PRODUCT: R:SCRIPTER FOR R:BASE 7.1 MIKE BYERLY:
This is a new Plugin for R:Base that allows you to store other language
scripts right in R:Base and run the code with a simple PLUGIN command.
Mike’s example on the CD shows:
Plugin: For Pascal Script, VB Script, J Script
Source code stored as VARCHAR data in database in his sample
Samples:
Filesize of text fle
Number lines in text file
Current network drive
API Message box:
Multi function call – simple example of multiple functions
StringList – add item to string list and retrieve it – in
background of list boxes in
Test timeout
Get URL currently up in explorer into R:Base
Starts Word and opens a file – could modify to open multiple documents at
once! – (you would have to modify his code)
API GetUtil – generates code as point to part of screen
You’ll have to take apart his table structure, eeps, and sample form on the
CD to follow examples of plugin code he’s building
NEW PRODUCT: R:SCOPE 7.5 FOR WINDOWS: JOHN MINYO
R:Scope was originally created 1990. Every version has been in DOS until
now
This new version will work with 6.5 and higher
Besides the obvious advantages of a Windows interface, some of the nice new
features include:
* Printer set up for error log
* New View Data options
* You can open in multi-user mode – you can’t do all fixes but you can look
at the data
* In manual row can click on “VIEW DATA” and see the actual row
NEW FEATURE IN NEW PRODUCT: SUB-REPORTS IN R:BASE 7.5 – BILL DOWNALL
When you create a report with a sub-report, R:Base displays tabs at the
bottom of screen for main and sub reports
There is now a new Tables – Add/remove table option in the menu, so one
report can be based on table x, and the sub-report on table y
IN the past, a ONE TO MANY report showing, for example, All customers, inclu
ding those with contacts and without them would have required setting up an
outer join between the Customer and Contacts tables and then basing the
report on this outer join. SUB REPORTS MEAN THIS IS NO LONGER NECESSARY
You can set up the main and sub-reports in a region to permit the main and
sub-report data to stretch together if needed
How does a sub-report decide which rows to display from the sub-report?
Link of two tables / view is based on common column names and is automatic
How do you sort data in a sub-report? In the sub-report definition you set
break points
OR to limit rows in sub-report further OR sort, create VIEW to limit the
rows and sort the data, then base that sub-report on the view
Four New Report / Actions:
Examples of how to use them:
Before Preview – Predefine vars defined; preset page number; if vars built
into view, define the variables for the views here
After Preview – clear the vars?
Before Generate – a PAUSE 3 to say it’s preparing
After Generate – a CLS to get PAUSE 3 off when it’s all built
These actions are available ONLY on the master report
IN another example Bill showed us, with contacts and invoices – if there ARE
invoices, it prints them, if NOT NOTHING prints - so NO outer join is
needed and NOTHING prints if are none – no headers, no nothing! This is
BETTER than the old way and lots simpler!
SUB REPORTS CAN HAVE SUB REPORTS
WATCH OUT:
Don’t use same variable name in main and subs
In the example on the CD with CUSTOMER, CONTACTS, TransMaster, TransDetails
to have proper sub reports, Contacts and Transactions have CustID so they
are subs of main, Transdetail does NOT so it has to be a sub of the
TransMaster sub-report – this also allows NO header for main or details if
are NOT transactions
FORMS DOCUMENTATION: SAMI AARON:
This requires setting up some new tables to document your forms, and, for
now, requires MANUAL entry as you create your application, of the
documentation.
Sami showed a very complicated form with a US map: the user could click on a
state and get data about airports for that state
The new tables are: SMS_Forms and SMS_FormsDetails
Sami’s Install file on the CD puts theses tables and all views, reports,
forms you’re your database
To use you must:
Add tables, etc to database
Have 2 copies of RBase open, one in design, one in her sms_forms form and
add a row for each control as you develop or document.
RBASE 7.5 PART II: RAZZAK
The new PDF options are all through a huge list of new OPTIONS in the PRINT
command under OPTION PDF
To see the example on the CD, IN RRBYW10 –select Reports / Secure PDF
Reports with TOC
Some of the new options include:
OWNER_Password (can print, etc) – overrides the limitations set by ENABLE
options below
USER_Password (user can view only)
ENCRYPT_FILE ON – ask for password
ENCRYTION_LEVEL 128BIT (lower case / upper case included in the password)
GENERATE_TOC ON – a table of contents shows up on the left side of document
in Adobe if you click on BOOKMARKS tab to the left – makes fast navigating
of the document possible (I look forward to this in the new R:DOCS!!!)
ENABLE_PRINTING ON/OFF
ENABLE_COPYING ON/OFF
ENABLE_MODIFYING ON/OFF
(His samples on the CD show options in alpha order but they don’t have to
be)
PRESENTATION_MODE ON/NONE – if on, need more time to display
USE_COMPRESSION ON
PAGE_LAYOUT_SINGLE_PAGE (or comes up with icons per page)
These show in Document Summary option in Adobe

THE AMAZING SELECT COMMAND: DAVID BLOCKER
I demonstrated the basics of SELECT using the SELDEMO.RMD program on the CD,
and then demonstrated several interested and unusual multi- table joins and
the advantages of each:
SELF – JOINS: joining a table to itself. Examples included:
Simple bill of materials and more complex bill of materials
A “ranked list”: showing clients in order by amount of total sales,
including a “ranking” number, all with one SELECT
CARTESIAN PRODUCTS: deliberately joining ALL rows in table with ALL rows
in another:
Samples included:
A “partial” cartesian product allowing a report showing the contribution of
each actor to a film’s sales
Getting around a “Cursor” lock on a table when all you’re doing is using the
cursor to read data, not change it.
Printing multiple copies of the same mailing label, grouping the same labels
together
SUNDAY OCTOBER 24, 2003:
UNDERSTANDING AND EDITING THE SYS_FORMS3 TABLE – ALEXEI CHUYASOV:
To see what’s really stored in the table:
Browse all from sys_forms3
Double click on the SYS_DATA column!
Object oriented conception : Each object is displayed in a tree structure
For each component:
Object
Properties
End
Very careful about editing this table to mess up the “end”
My idea: could we load this data into a table with one row per line in text
and use it to document a form?
CAN EDIT AN OBJECT IN AN AMAZING WAY!
- point to it in forms designer
- Ctrl X
- Paste into notepad
- Edit it
- Copy it
- Paste onto the form
- The changed object will appear on the from in the right spot!
WARNING: If you are editing the sys_forms3 table the form should NOT be
open in the designer
JOB APP NETWORK: RANDY MORROW, RINART PEPA
This was a demonstration of a remarkable 6.5++ application. Randy and
Rinart run their ENTIRE company off R:Base: their clients set up automated
Job applications: applicants, apply, have interviews, etc. all over the
phone, all run automatically by R:Base, with R:Base storing the
conversations and answers in full!
Interactive Voice Data and Facts: “The Future of Hiring”
They plan to set out a huge number “take a number” containers (like you see
at a supermarket deli-counter) all over nationally to advertise this service
People call in for job openings with their clients – R:Base is behind
scenes – handling hundreds of thousands of calls
Automated voice mail
THIS IS AN AMAZING EXAMPLE OF aN APPLICATION HANDLING NATIONWIDE PHONE CALL
24 hours a day stored in huge dATAbASE!
CUSTOMIZED QUICK REFERENCE FORMS: Charlie Parks:
There’s no way to describe this – you have to see it to believe it and
understand it!! ********* LOOK AT THIS ON THE CD!
Among other things, Charlie opened our eyes to a great feature on 7.x
forms: “CUSTOM FORM ACTION”. You find this under– Layout / Custom Form
Action; you set up code that can be executed many times in one form with a
PROPERTY command!
ELECTRONIC VOTING: BERNIE LIS:
Bernie took us into the wonderland of a WHAT IF R:Base was used to set up a
nationwide voting system application; in the process he launched his
campaign for President and shared some truly disgraceful jokes!
R:WEB SUITE: RAZZAK AND RAFEE:
Razzak and Rafee gave yet another great demonstration of a all the terrific
things you can do with PHP and R:WEB SUITE.
This included a good example of a table to track all who log in (IP
addresss, server from, report printed), etc.
What does your service provider need to run a web site developed with R:WEB
SUITE? Not much! All have PHP, 1AND1.COM is an example of who can host
it, the provide 124 gig server access $29 per month
BUILDING A SCHEDULE USING R:BASE PROPERTIES: DAVID KOS – BLUE RIDGE PAPER
COMPANY
David showed a great example of how he built a calendar scheduling
application using a Gantt Chart style display
Behind it all were:
Variable Edit Controls showing jobs, tasks related to a job
Enhanced Panel Control to contain Job shifts or time intervals
Hints to provide job or general information
Pop-up forms = schedule cards or detail task info
To look at it need 1200 dpi pixel setting to see full form at once on screen
He showed a BIG block of code that runs on entry to the form that sets
properties for each of the schedule blocks – setting top, sizes, colors of
each job block to show it in the proper position on the form.
NEW PRODUCT: R:FAX: ALEXEI CHUYASOV:
This is a plug in to send faxes from R:Base
It includes:
Options to view the file
Options to include cover page
Pages can be text, PIFF, JPG
It assumes you have a modem and phone line – this assumes THAT way of
sending faxes
NEW PRODUCT: TURBO R:BASE 8.0 – A WORK IN PROGRESS – WAYNE ERICKSON R:BASE
V-8 TURBO
Wayne demonstrated this very close to ready for prime time product!
Features include:
Large file sizes
Long column/ table / names
SET NAMEWIDTH command which controls the length of the display on LIST
commands
Row size now 4k – may be longer
Filenames will be rX1 to rX4
Wayne showed a database with #2 file 3.4 gig
Expression size limit may increase from 240 to 1000
Steve Sweeney demonstrated a LIVE Hewlett Packard account which actually
using Turbo R:Base 8.0 - #2 file 4.3 gig
He showed a table with 3 million rows of data and did a sample select group
by command with very fast results
There could be possible new data types such as Boolean
NEW PRODUCT: RBZIP: ALEXEI CHUYASOV
Another plugin! Plugin rbzip-rbl
Option: show_dialog - this indicates where to create the zip file in an
interactive mode – with a very friendly interface
Can be used to compress or uncompress files
See SampleRBZip.RMD
Files created can be read by WinZip, etc.
REPORTS: MERGE DATA AND USE OF REGIONS – CLAUDINE ROBBINS
Claudine demonstrated a complex contract form that, with Razzak’s help, she
was able to create using R:Base 7.
She used to use Extended Report Writer to do it. Starting in versions 4.5
and 4.5++, she ran into limitations and resorted to using data file
exported to Word Star and later MS Word to create the contracts, a real
productivity loss. Now she can do it in R:Base!
Most of the document is boiler plate, but some of it must be at the end
(unique ID)
On her data entry form there are 12 possible boiler plate paragraphs to
include in the contract. All she has to do know is check off what applies
and it’s included in the contract.
This is accomplished by a program which builds all the long text strings
needed, paragraphs, etc., load them into a temp table and the report runs
off that table.
She talked about a problem she had with successive DB memo objects one above
the other. Here’s how to get them to expand correctly:
Text1 DBMemo1
Text2 DBMemo2
Text3 DBMemo3
Solution:
* Region1 is around text1 and dbmemo1
* Region2 is around text2 and dbmemo2 and the REGION shifts relative to
DBMemo1
* Region3 is around text3 and dbmemo3 and the REGION shifts relative to
DBMemo2
NEW PRODUCT: R:ARCHIVE: RAZZAK
This product is an R:Base application than can be used to manage document
scanning
Menu options in the product:
Select Session Folder(s): Define directory for the current scanning
session, define prefix for all files to be scanned in this session - gives
default and you can change either or both - files will be named
prefix_00000000.jpg, prefix_00000001.jpg, etc.
Scan Document Automatic: Scanner is hooked up to PC, user clicks “Scan
Document” and the program sends commands to the scanner to scan and the
database stores – Doc Id, date, time, user (from network ID) and the doc
name given. The user can then type in the title and notes and can view the
doc: the image is a standalone JPG file on the drive in the directory you
defined for that session. The application stores the full path /directory
name \filename in the database
Scan Document Manual: This allows you, for example, to scan the document,
then bring it up for editing, select out just part of it and store THAT as
the image!
This is NOT on conference CD
Includes an option to change the driver to use so you can use different
equipment – including a digital camera!!
You can change resolution (DPI) x and y, colors, output format, and whether
or not to show the user interface
It’s all an R:Base application – we can change as we need to!
Once you buy this, you can use it on our own, include it in another
application, RCompile it and end up with an EXE to send out!
CONVERTING 7.1 /5 DATABASES TO R:BASE V-8 TURBO: RAZZAK
In 7.1:
SET NULL -0-
OUTPUT dbname.STR
UNLOAD ALL
OUTPUT SCREEN
Creates STR and LOB file
In R:Base V-8 Turbo:
RUN dbname.STR
There you go!
CREATING CUSTOM HELP SCREENS: RAZZAK
He uses a product to create them – it is available at www.helpandmanual.com
This creates files CHM – the actual help file and HM3 – the designer file
* Collect your image files needed (jpg files)
* Very easy to create the tree of topics (table contents on the left) –
then compile it
Automatically gives you
* table of contents
* search option
To run from R:Base – just LAUNCH xxxx.chm
SETTING UP A FORM TEMPLATE: CHARLIE PARKS
Charlie demonstrated a simple and powerful technique to create forms
quickly.
He created a sample standard form with, for example:
Enhanced panel
Topic on top
Add tab page
Add right hand panel for buttons, include splitter if want
Add boxes to right panel to provide background for buttons
The result is a “master form” with all his standard images on it – click and
copy from it to start new forms.
This is a basic standard form – just copy to new name and table and off you
go!
NEW PRODUCT: R:MAIL 2.5: JOHN MINYO
Internally at RBTI they have an in-house application called R:WYWO (phone
message management system)
Sample app is on conference CD
New front end
It takes advantage of these new features in R:Mail 2.5
* Create Receipt
* Lets you know if email could be sent or not
* Saves authentication to log file
To use this application:
Copy the CD files and startup files to a network directory
Create a Shortcut for 7.1 with RWYWO.DAT as the startup file
PROGRAMMABLE CALENDAR IN R:BASE – VICTOR TIMMONS:
Victor created a Calendar and scheduler application in R:Base 7.1 and is
sharing it with us on the conference CD!
Very slick use of forms and properties to do scheduling
If you get this, notice in particular his idea of having an address in the
application and turning it into a Map Quest request for directions to that
address!!!
NEW PRODUCT: R:JAVA: ALEXEI CHUYASOV
This is not real R:Java but an ODBC connector
The product is a DLL that permits connecting Java code to an R:Base back end
Done and ready to ship
PRODUCT DESCRIPTION: RCOMPILER: RAZZAK
You can make your own icon, your own company name, etc.
R:Compiler normally expects an RBA but you replace instead with an RMD
instead! (This creates a standalone file IF ALL programs are stored in
forms)
Your application can build graphs with R:Charts – can distribute those too
if you include RCHARTS.DLL with what you ship
ODBC: RAZZAK:
Razzak demonstrated an attempt to get into R:Base FROM Access. His point
was that the Oterro driver works better than the usual R:Base ODBC driver
MONDAY, OCTOBER 25, 2004
AUTOMATED BACKUP / PACK / RELOAD ROUTINES FOR R:BASE 7.1: DAVID BLOCKER
I demonstrated a standard set of programs that will work on ANY database to
perform these 3 critical functions from an R:Base application. All are
based on a standard set of code and all have extensive error trapping to be
sure every step works before you go on the next one.
I demonstratead 3 alternative methods of keeping a background screen up
during the process, since an R:Base form cannot normally remain on screen
during the backup.
Method 1: Use a program I got from Mike Byerly to create a background screen
Method 2: Use the Application designer, not a form, to create your main menu
Method 3: LAUNCH another session of R:Base that displays a screen that looks
like your main menu form but is actually from another database; files
created by the backup programs are used to signal the other application when
it can close.
The first two methods are fully available and documented on the conference
CD. The third was based on an idea from Emmitt Dove at the conference and
was written there. It is NOT on the conference CD. Contact David privately
if you’d the files.
DAWN OAKES – RAPID CONVERSION TO 7.5+:
Heinrich Ceramic Decal, Inc.
Dawn demonstrated an elaborate system to use of hazardous raw materials such
as lead in her company which creates customized ceramic products (Mugs,
plates, etc.)
What did she do to convert rapidly from 6.5++? She did NOT add bells and
whistles and just converted
They also developed a method of getting histogram data from a Mac
application to R:Base
EXPANDING THE CAPABILITIES OF R:WEB SUITE: DALE THOMAS
R:Web suite is great, but sooner or later you’ll need to learn PHP.
You can do simple applications fast with R:Web suite.
But then you will run into things that are way over your head: normally you’
ll contract these out
Then there are those in the middle: ;these were the focus of his
presentation. He demonstrated and includes in his conference CD files:
* Using Styles: control look and feel of entire application / site by doing
it at one site
* All info about your PHP installation – system vars, etc – are available
with one command: PHPINFO
* Doing ODBC queries
Odbc_result_all command: – this is for debugging purposes – it throws
everything from the query into a table (file ODBC_RES.PHP) – this is VERY
powerful and simple example to look at
* CLOCK.HTM – a clock that moves around with your mouse!
* EMAIL.PHP – sending emails using PHP
* CALENDAR.PHP – a calendar
Resources to learn PHP:
* BOOK – Poor’s PHP Programming by Atkinson
* WEB site – www.php.net
RBG7 REPORT QUEUE – CALLING RBG7 REPORTS FROM ANYWHERE – STEVE SWEENEY
In the past, Steve and others had to build a seperate report in 6.5++ then
again from scratch in a web design tool to get the report printed from the
web.
NOW - can call report produced by v7 anywhere on web
WEB: inserts row into a table with report to print, where clause, order by
In his example created for HP, there are three workstations than run an
application all the time looking for a row in that table
The REP_QUE table includes the report name, where, order by and workstation
ID that claims the request
The application:
Locks the table – looks for row with report but no filename and location
Prints the report creating file name, posts to the row the workstation id
producing it, filename created, etc.
WEB application looks for that row and then shows that file at that server
location – the report!
A HUGE time and money saver for your clients!
IMPLEMENTING A FLEET MANAGEMENT SYSTEM: JAVIER VALENCIA
Javier demonstrated a comprehensive and elegant system for maintaining a
large number of vehicles for a department of public works.
