Sounds like The Programmers Helper which is a parameter-less source code
generator. In my travels I tend to shudder when a new client has a 4GL,
whether commercial or home-grown. Primac, Vercon, Info-Quest, Datamaster,
Screen-Gen, Wizard, Gull etc.

I'm just getting into the Accuterm GUI designer and it could worth a look.
Creates VB-looking screen with a GUI editor and a full-screen code editor. A
tad un-documented but Peter Schellenbach is incredibly helpful with any
questions. I'm planning to consider it for any of my standard green screen
clients that are considering GUI.

You still have to code the logic by hand. But the 'objects' behave 85% like
VB's and you have to be aware that neither designer screens are RUN screens.
Each GUI program is stand-alone which means that you can gradually replace
green screens over time. It is really a regular RUN program that works with
the emulator for the magic.
