I agree with you, Don. I couldn't program a subfile from scratch if my
life depended on it, let alone my job. I flat out cannot remember the
last time I wrote a subfile program from scratch. I use Progen Plus
from BCD. Anyone who is not using Progen or something like it to
generate code is nuts. Progen has paid for itself so many times I can't
begin to count. Virtually every person in our company is much more
productive because I have Progen. We're talking every office and
management employee, drivers, the warehouse day and night crews, the
whole shebang. I could not be giving them the full-featured subfile
programs at the rate I do without Progen. We're talking company bottom
line difference here. I know I sound like a shill for Progen, I am
not. I don't sell it or benefit financially from sales of Progen. It's
just a godsend.
And besides, why should one memorize what subfile keywords do, in all
there nuances? You can look them up anytime.
