Hello to all of you,
I have a general question to see if someone can give me some advice. I am looking for a development environment to built aplications in windows environment. Something that is easy and reliable for me.
My experience in the past to give you some background:
consultant/developer in Sap fro 15 years (abal/4)
VBA in ACCESS database based clients with MS sql server behind.
SCADA Factory Talk View with development in VBA.
I feel comfortable in Visual basic and I would like to stick to it. I need basically “batch†processes that would run in the server. For instance checking some incoming text files in a shared directory, accessing SQL server.
Normally I am not producing client forms for human interaction. I will be scanning directories for text files, and interacting with SQL server
So Which environment should I use? What software do I need to install? Visual studio and VB. Any other? pros/cons.
Basically I can ask my IT infrastructure to prepare a Windows server with SQL server and install “whateverâ€, All with due licenses of course, I look for something as simple as possible with the conditions mentioned above.
Thanks
