As every year, many of you replied in 2008 to Novalys worldwide survey of PowerBuilder users. The thousands of responses received each year allow us monitor how PowerBuilder projects have developed since 2001.

Help us to follow the evolution of the PowerBuilder community by completing Novalys’ 2009 survey. You will then be able to access the full 2008 results.

Join us during June for user group meetings in
Minneapolis, Denver and Houston for a hands-on experience

We will review the PowerBuilder roadmap, specifically as it relates to PowerBuilder 12 before talking about the Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF) for PowerBuilder Developers. Then will come the highlight of the meeting as the attendees get to take the new PowerBuilder 12 CTP out for a test-drive during an extended hands-on session exploring the features of the new IDE, creating and deploy a simple WPF application, and migrating an existing Win32 PowerBuilder application to WPF.
