Hi All,

I have written an application generator that allows developers to build
business applications for MS SQL Server in just a fraction of the time it
used to take. All you need to do is create the tables and answer a few yes
or no questions about each table. The generator does the rest.

In order to promote my generator to developers, I am issuing the following
challenge:

I claim that, using the Abacus Application Generator; I can develop your
next MS SQL Server application, for you, in only one forth the amount of the
time it would take you. I also claim that the generated application will be
of better quality, versatility, and usefulness than anything you can develop
given four times the amount of time, it takes me, to deliver your app.

The challenge will cost you nothing. All you have to do is send me the T-SQL
scripts necessary to create your tables and to define the indexes and
foreign key relationships. My generator will do the job, and I will deliver
the finished and fully functional UI.exe along with a finished and fully
functional SQL Server back end, completely free of charge. So even if you
loose the challenge, you will a gain a new database application and perhaps
a new way to greatly increase your productivity and your profits.

The benefits of this system are as follows:

 1. The system generates true Client Server and Multi Tier applications.

 2. There is zero coding for common functionality, i.e. Adds, Updates,
Deletes, Audit trail, Security, Rolling Down Data, Cascading Deletes,
Posting to General ledger etc.

 3. There is zero work of any kind for generation of data entry screens and
their lookups.

 4. The back end is completely independent from the front end. You can hit
the database with any application or user interface and still be sure that
you have complete security and valid data.

 5. Easy navigation through out the application. The generated user
interface is a familiar modern metaphor with a navigation tree on top or at
the side and data entry screens at the bottom. Also, the generated user
interface remembers customizations to each data entry screen. This allows
you to make sweeping changes to the interface, and regenerate all data entry
screens, without loosing your customizations.

 6. Consistent look and feel via OOP Inheritance and code generators.

 7. Major changes in look and functionality are made in one place only, and
ripple down to all affected parts of the system without programmer
intervention. Again, this was accomplished with OOP inheritance and also
with code generators.

 8. Users to have the ability to create queries and reports on the fly. And
the ability to save and reload those queries and reports in many formats
including Excel and HTML.

 9. Users to have complete flexibility in customizing the look and feel of
the system. The extent to which each user can customize the interface must
be seen to be believed. This high level of customizability creates a high
degree of user acceptance.

10. Logical use of hot keys and local popup menus allow for easy mouse free
operation, permitting the user to keep his or her hands on the keyboard, if
the user so desires.

11. All custom code added to generated data entry screens and generated
backend code persists after regeneration.

Get all this without programming.
