Dear Fons Thank you very much for these good news, at the moment I donīt know what to say. Maybe, I will say only the following: After spending almost one year to develop a very complex GUI for my application, I really believe that the TG Classes have the potential to be the basis for professional GUI development, and I will continue to use TG only. Best regards, and thank you all once again.
