Does anyone have an interface program similar to pgaccess but not in
tcl/tk?  Besides not being my favorite language, I'm not terribly
familiar with it, and what I'm building for a customer needs
enhancements.  Mostly what I need is the ability to create a form, and
to execute pre-written sql queries.

If anyone wants to help me with pgaccess, then please tell me how to
set the tab order, how to bind a button to a key, and how to run some
code upon pressing enter in an entry box, so that my users can
touch-type.  They're used to PC-File, which doesn't need the mouse.

I'll send to you some help in that direction but it would be wise to use
Visual Tcl to build standalone applications.
Yes, PgAccess might be a solution but not very "professional". Forms are
(yet) just at the beginning.

Go to http://www.neuron.com/stewart/vtcl/index.html and get vTcl 1.2

Play a while and I'll send you a sample program that will show you how
to deal with PostgreSQL, listboxes, entries.

It's extremely simple and Tcl/Tk is powerful and simple to use (see
PgAccess).

Let's talk in private about it (teo@flex.ro)
