News Spotlight on Pixieware®
April 2002 ======= N E W S F L A S H ========
One major product enhancement.
Upgrade Product - PixieLink® - Is now a HTML interpreter as well a terminal emulator. PixieLink is a User-Agent program that can also reference the same text pages containing HTML markup commands and interpret the documents contents without the need of a web server. In the PixieLink environment existing or new PICK programs may generate the HTML text pages.
With the popularity of the web, HTML has developed display capabilities well beyond those of VT100, WYSE50 etc., so PixieLink provides a convenient means of adding an attractive GUI interface to an existing PICK application.

ABBASOFT Technologies Use PixieEngine
ABBASOFT Technologies, Inc. of Laguna Hills, CA, makers of MRP/ERP software, and PixieWare (NZ) contractors facilitating the transformation of legacy software, recently announced a tentative agreement to develop a joint product which combines the PixieEngine™ and the ABBASOFT WebEZ development tool into one product.
The ABBASOFT WebEZ tool allows developers and end users to convert character based applications into Web-based systems. The creation of a new browser-based front-end that can be driven by the core application is the result. The tool also allows users to customise or change screens quickly and easily.
PixieWare software allows you to convert your MultiValue application to some of the worlds most popular databases such as Microsoft SQL Server. The company has also successfully mastered the ability to insert HTML code into Basic code, allowing existing applications to use a common browser instead of a terminal emulator. The exciting development is that not only will ABBASOFT's core products (NetPartner and WebPartner) run on D3 but also on MS SQL Server, ABBASOFT said.
ABBASOFT will also represent the PixieEngine product in the United States. Refer: www.abbasoft.com
