The product enables VARs and end-users to integrate Pick with Microsoft Windows productivity applications such as Excel. NCR Visual Client also provides a terminal emulator so users can run existing character-based applications unchanged. There is no need to rewrite the entire application to make use of NCR Visual Client. Further, it removes the requirement for users to have both a terminal and a PC at each desk since it runs both PC applications and host-based text applications.
Programmers can select from many industry-standard development environments.
ADDS will be offering seminars that teach the fundamentals of programming in a Visual Client environment. Further, consulting will be available for further instruction, graphical design, or complete coding. A terminal emulator option will be offered at a bundled price. The product is scheduled for availability Q4, 1993. ADDS systems are supported by over 1,300 NCR field service centers.
