PC Week has had a preliminary review. Basically, you have 3 ways to generate WinApps: (1) Use the Windows API, all of which is there. (2) Use Turbo's own object-oriented programming system, which is an outgrowth of the object-oriented user interfaces in Turbo Pascal 6.0. This is, for most purposes, much more concise and equally powerful. (3) You can even use writeln, readln, etc., to do a textual interaction in a window. (I.e., use a window like the screen of an ordinary computer.) This is very concise but not very Windows-ish. You can combine this with Windows API calls, or just take a straight Pascal program and run it. -- ------------------------------------------------------- Michael A.
