RE: PowerBuilder Frontend

A client is considering it.  The shop uses PB7 over Sybase currently, but I
am not convinced that Sybase is where they need to be.  I may have some
small influence over the database selection process and DB2 seems to be much
better behaved.  Of course, I've not worked with Sybase, but I sat next to 2
Sybase DBA's for a week - ouch!

I did some of that with PB5. It worked OK, but PB was a little, um, not
totally without bugs. Why do you ask?
