Visual Dataflex is a programming language of sorts which may be best described as belonging in the category of Visual Basic for Applications, the older style of Visual Basic and maybe even a very little bit of .Net. It's simple and good in what it does. Simple? Why! I hear you cry. Fear not, I will explain why I think this. First though, I'd like to touch on what it can do for you?

This language sounds like it was just created to facilitate rapid creation of GUIs. Looks like its going to get a lot of competition from languages like VB and C#. With a good GUI designer, I don't see why anyone would want to use VDF.
Not all applications fit a specific framework and as the author says, once you try to do something different, you end up fighting the language.
Thanks, but I'll pass.
