2227.0. "Internal Written Forms Package?" by MDVAX3::HARTMAN ($SET SPECIALIST/RESIDENT/PERMANENT) Wed Feb 07 1990 10:24

    
    I am currently associated with a project with some very aggressive
    deadlines.  One of the requirements is a DECwindows interface to a
    front end form that a user will fill out.  Knowing the current
    disposition of the DECwindows support under DECforms, my question is;
    has anyone done anything with writing a generic DECwindows form
    package?  If so, would it be possible for you to contact me (probably
    off-line would be best), and let me know what you have done?
    
    I can be reached at DTN 445-6558 or VAXmail REDBRD::HARTMAN.
    
    Thanks in advance,

We have the same requirement for our process scheduling application. We don't 
want to resort to DECforms inside a DECterm window, but the only other solution
seems to be to write the forms control.

How many of us are out here re-inventing the wheel ?

Maybe we could get together and come up with some specific requirements so that
this hole in DECwindows gets plugged as quickly as possible.
