I'm wondering what tools people might recommend to develop SQL Server front ends? I've got a budget that requires that I pick tools that are pretty easy for a developer to use, and can be used to quickly develop applications. Access makes the most sense, but I'm not very fond of it.Any other suggestions? |

Well, depending on what you need to support, you can write a front end in anything. C/C++, VB, VB.Net, VBScript, C#, Java/JavaScript, Perl, Python, ASP, ASP.Net, MS Access, FoxPro/Visual Foxpro, the list goes on. Of course it helps to use a programming language you already know... Although I despise it, Visual Interdev has a bunch of things that can help you get a front-end together pretty quickly, if you need or want an ASP solution (and you're not too concerned with having good, solid code) Macromedia has Dreamweaver MX now, I haven't used it much but I know there's a lot of template-type stuff. Then there's regular Visual Studio and VS.Net, and if you want something free:http://www.asp.net/webmatrix/default.aspx |
