Great Starter Kit

The textbook and the associated trial software (as well as thediscounted price for the full software if you decide to buy) isa great package. It covers everything from the initial nuances of database programming to writing code. The Pentagon software itself is relatively robust. The only hidden problem is that once you have a workable/sellable software, they'll charge you $849.00 for the rights to distribute your database (ie "sale price" upgrade if you go through the Starter Kit- it's $995.00 otherwise). This is steep enough for me that I'll wait on going through the purchase of this otherwise good software package for now and go with HanDBase instead. The kit itself, though, is an excellent initial product.

Powerful, yet affordable

As an experienced developer, time has always been my enemy. With Pendragon Forms, I'm able to quickly get an application into the hands of my customers, while keeping costs down for them - and me! This book provides the information I need to get the software from development to my customers quickly. Thanks for developing a great product and for giving us developers a break!
