Differences between Std, Pro & Ent editions

edited February 2002 in General
Hi there,

I have a standard edition of RBuilder, and am finding bits missing,
which are obviously in the next versions up, where can I find out what
extras I get when I move from

Std to Professional
Std to Enterprise

The reason I want to know is because I want to be able to do something
similar to the Application tutorial where they build an End User App using
InterBase. My app is backend independent but I can improvise the solution.

I need a real slick and powerful End User solution

Please help as soon as...

TIA
Colin B

    The upgrade from Standard to Professional is US $246. The price you
    referred to is to upgrade to Enterprise. Your earlier post didn't mention
    any needs that would require Enterprise.

    Mike,

    I knew the upgrade prices I just didn't know at that point that I only
    needed to upgrade from Std to Pro.

    Anyways I did upgrade, and from what I can see it is more than adequate for
    my current needs....

    Many thanks again

    Well, as I see it, Enterprise is the _only_ usable edition as it's the only
    one that includes RAP. Couldn't imagine any serious development at all
    without that...
    Unfortunately I couldn't afford it for private use myself...

    I've found Professional is great for most end-user apps. RAP is great for a very
    savvy end-user...Fortunately, or maybe unfortunately, my end-users have a tough
    time with anything that anything that looks like coding.

    I wasn't talking about end-users. As I see it, as soon as your app requires
    more than one report the only sensible way to implement it is by using
    templates. Obviously you can't use hard-coded event-handling with templates
    (not in a truly flexible manner, that is). And that's where RAP simply HAS
    to step in to accomplish anything in the least bit complex. It also serves
    to separate the individual reports' functionality from the application's
    functionality, thus allowing the two to be updated independently.
