Hi,
I don't know if there is documentation about that, but just figure that
ALL-IN-1 has implemented many sub-systems itself; Word Processing,
Electronic Mail, Desk Management etc. In the past lots and lots of
applications has been made to be integrated under ALL-IN-1.
It depends on what the characteristics of those applications are.
However, I think that it is a good idea to build the user-interface to
such an application in ALL-IN-1, and the ultimate integration is to
write an application in ALL-IN-1.
Convince him!
Regards, Sjaak, from the field.

Some tests to determine if an application is a natural for ALL-IN-1: 1. Do you need to access mail functions from the application? 2. Do you need to access word processing from the application? 3. Do you need a form interface with field validation etc.? 4. Do you need access to a file cabinet? 5. Will the application be used by people currently using ALL-IN-1? 6. Does the application fit in the office automation suite? 7. Do you need to access time management from the application? 8. Are there any ALL-IN-1 subsystems which resemble the needed application? "Yes" to any of the above and ALL-IN-1 is probably your environment. Others are welcome to add to this list. Joe | |||||
