hi Martinez

ok i dont have much idea about power builder but have asked the same question to my colleague who is master in PB. HEre are few of his comments,

PB is ofcourse a much more power full development tool then Developer.
In PB the same form can be converted to report, graphs etc... where as in developer u need to make all of them seperately.

PB supports OOPS since when OOPS was not so popular, i mean to say inheritance, multiple lever of Inhertance, polymorphism etc...

There very handy grids available in PB on which u can easily apply sorts, filters etc... no need to code extra.

it communicates pretty well with system level parameters of any operating system.

and many more like this....

so i suggest go with PB, but if u r looking for same strengths of PB and as well good Support then go for VB, D2K is now at its downfall..

Forms (at least 6i) is portable between character-based terminal, windows/motif GUI and JAVA web-deployment. It also supports inheritance. Due to some almost invisible features it's extremely fast against Oracle datasource (not so good against other ODBC databases).
