To be honest, these are not the ‘simple’ questions about Scriptcase. Scriptcase is a php developmentsystem running in a browser. It generates applications usually based upon a database structure you provide. It’s a case tool and I tend to call it a digital lego system. It’s loaded of building blocks, but you need to put it together. It’s not a full ecosystem therefore lots of your questions simply don’t apply. In short: you develop on a high level of PHP as it is a case tool. You work in events and not on the bone of php with con- and destructors. It does have capabilities of formlayout but limited, it’s not wysiwyg. It has a data dictionary which is used for multilanguage purposes. As it’s php it supports all php has to offer including soap, but integration of third party libs is not always as easy. It supports multiuser (we have a 10 user licence) and it has versino control.
There are loads of video’s available and I advise you to look at them. They give a good insight of the (inner) working of scriptcase.
Hope this helps as these questions should not be asked on a user forum…

Tnx a lot, I saw video’s about guide for using scriptcase and they gave me answers on few questions. Sorry for missing place for asking this questions, I wasn’t really sure about it.
