An excellent 4GL that runs under many different operating systems and computers,
including Xenix, UNIX, VMS, DOS, OS/2, on everything from PCs to Vaxes is
called DATAFLEX. It is a Data Access Corp. product (they're based in 
Miami). The Canadian distributor for Dataflex is Canveon Systems Inc.
16a Greenfield Ave, Willowdale Ontario, M2N 3C8, (416) 226-3181.

Dataflex offers excellent terminal independant forms processing, a
procedural language that lets you do practically anything you could ever
want to. There is a Query program included that provides a "point-and-shoot"
method of retrieving data. 

A C source and library product is now also available that allows extensions
to be made to the Dataflex language. This should only be required for
very specialiazed applications as the standard Dataflex language is very
rich and expressive.

Prices vary according to needs. A Single User Development license for the
PC is about $995 (Cdn) and a Run Time license is only $300 (Cdn).

Phone Canveon for any additional information you require.
