Hi, I am a new Progress user and would like to know if some can help
me to point me in the right direction: I want to implement an
application with Progress Database running on a SCO or LINUX server.
My question is: is Progress stable in SCO or LINUX and what version of
Progress is best suited for this OS. And what is the recommendation of
the tool to develop the application in the front end? Can I use
Progress itself? My client want the application to be GUI based.
Your feedback is much appreciated. Thanks

Progress 10 is new. The easiest development tool is Progress 4gl o
Appbuilder. If your more familiar with say VB, there are options

Hi Mark,

To my knowledge, you can run Progress 10 on Suse Linux and Red Hat. The
ERP software that I use runs ontop of Progress and I know the ERP maker
has implemetations on Redhat, Suse, and Solaris.

As for developing the front end, Appbuilder as suggested is the most
native way to go. You can also use WebSpeed by Progress, or maybe a
combo of JBDC/ODBC and some webscripting. If this is going to be a
mission critical app, you'll probably want to stick with
appbuilder/webspeed.

Cheers

Joe
