Steve - You may want to talk to some of the old SB+ guys about a
project they did a while back called "DATA C" I believe it was C with
extensions for MV and databasic. IT was never marketed and only ever
used internally (to develop SB Client perhaps) I used to have some docs
on it but that was several hard disks ago...

For many years, I was in charge of the development of UniVision. This
was developed in C++, and naturally we included all the Pick-BASIC like
features directly in C++. This meant it was possible to develop
business applications in C++ quite readily, however, it demanded a much
higher level of competence that programming in Pick-BASIC. In short,
the folks who could cope with C++ didn't need the concepts we added,
and the folks who needed the concepts we added couldn't cope with C++.
