TAS Professional 7 Powered by CAS

- Version 7.2 Build 1

TAS Professional is designed to be a complete
application development tool for graphical operating
systems. It provides application building tools for
the programmer new to application development, as
well as the seasoned developer demanding professional
quality development tools designed to work together
from the beginning. These powerful utilities include:

Data Dictionary Manager
Database Maintenance Programs
Form Editor
Report Editor
Source Code Editor
Runtime Compiler
Skins Editor
Install Builder

TAS Professional includes over 150 commands, each
with many options, and over 230 functions that can be
used in expressions. Many of the TAS Professional 6
commands can be compared to macro functions found in
other high level languages. In other words, a single
TAS Professional 6 command can often replace several
entire lines in other languages. Add to this the
ability to create User Defined Commands (UDCs) and
User Defined Functions (UDFs), and you now have a
very powerful development tool.

Currently, TAS Professional powered by CAS runs only
on the Windows© operating system, however, in the
future we plan to run on Linux systems and directly
on the Internet. Due to the design of TAS
Professional, any programs you create to run on
Windows© will run, without change, on these other
platforms also. You will be able to change database
managers at will. You won't even need to recompile
the programs! This means that from the same set of
programs you can have some users running Windows©
some running Linux©, maybe others on platforms to
come, and all can be running the exact same set of
programs accessing the same database.

What TAS Professional 6 isn't? You're not going to
write an operating system with TAS Professional. It
isn't meant to replace programs like C++ or Delphi©.
It was designed to give you the capabilities to
easily and quickly develop general purpose
business/financial programs with a GUI
