I'll agree with all of Ed's other comments - except that one. You can get RPL for D3, which is essentially compiled PQN. All of your F-OPEN, F-READ, and &/!/%/# buffers are there, plus more. So D3 is as much on the table as any other platform. I don't think anyone has mentioned QM yet, but I believe there is strong support for PQN there as well. One of my clients, a regular here, took several months to migrate dicts from Pick-style A/S correlatives to Unidata. Major pain. Of all of the platforms available, I'd think Unidata is the most difficult for migration of a really full-featured app. Reality probably supports Microdata better than anyone - including full PQN support. Unless you feel compelled to move from a Pick-based platform to a Prime-based platform with support for Pick flavors, there's really no need to go that route. Bottom line is that you can go anywhere you want with relative equal pain or lack thereof. Given that technically most of the options are equivalent, my inclination would be to go with the strongest vendor, best product support, best options for the future, etc. HTH Tony Gravagno Nebula Research and Development TG@ remove.pleaseNebula-RnD.com Nebula R&D sells mv.NET and other Pick/MultiValue products worldwide, and provides related development services remove.pleaseNebula-RnD.com/blog Visit PickWiki.com!
