The problem I have had is that the answer is mostly somewhere to be found - so I only give up when I have confirmation from either a group such as this or directly from PCSoft. Generally speaking if you can think it you can do it. The Frenglish often gets in the way though.
Just completed a Web Dev app that is saving a client USD$10,000 per annum - took about six weeks - takes care of three mission critical functions superbly. The client was hooked into a cloud offering. We were able to virtually duplicate what they were used to but obviously improve it and add many things they had hoped to have in the rented cloud solution. Not a small task in the Web App space. WB was up to it.
So this little issue hardly registered on the scale of needs and there was a very easy workaround - kept the caption and just had a string placed next to it with the variable data that constantly changes.
And this little added value to the client is probably about 1% now of our enterprise offering. So we are and our client are happy campers. They have saved themselves lots of tom and we have added new features to our offering.
Found very little we cannot do with WX stuff.
Nice to see you lurking around hear Dave - it is awash with old Clarioneers as are the other WX forums. Many, as we, use both tools in addition to a few others such as Delphi and different variants of C++ and C# and so on. Need lots of tools in the shed these days to be effective in the hunt.
Just come back from a WX conference - quite amazing how many big corporates are now using it in house.
Cheers
André
