WYSIWYG Programing

[CrouchingWayne]

Hi all

I recall many years ago Visual Basic offered a way to work with a WYSIWYG interface to create applications. Obviously there was scripting involved but this was done from within the VB interface if I recall correctly.

I recently stumbled upon Unity which offers a similar experience but targeted at gaming.

Is there something around these days which brings that user friendly interface approach to creating more business oriented programs? I'd like to puddle with importing data from excel, manipulating it and creating some outputs which I don't think Unity can help with.

Thanks

Great thanks for the links - my programming knowledge isn't the greatest but I am familiar with Javascript and some basic C# as well as online scripts such as PHP/MySQL - from my experience so far C# seems a bit easier to use. Happy to pick up any others required though.

The program I have in mind is to help with work - basically I want to load a trial balance (4 columns - identifier code, opening balance, period movement, closing balance) and then with other screens that data can be cut up to be analysed.

I'm hopeful the programming associated with this is fairly basic and the hard bit is the knowledge on how to cut it all up... Which I hopefully have already..!

If you have a steer on what would suit best I'm all ears. Although having typed it out I am wondering if I would be best to consider a cloud/web based system.
