SIMPOL Personal

SIMPOL Personal™ is used for various things. It hosts the rapid application development (RAD) tools, such as the database table creation/modification tool, the form designer, and a front-end for the reporting system. It also supplies a number of useful facilities, such as import/export, the ability to do basic data-entry into database tables (either through forms or in record view), reorganize utilities, etc.. In many cases, projects will begin in SIMPOL Personal™ and after the database tables and forms have been created, then the programmer will switch to building a basic program in the IDE to display the forms and to respond to events.
