There is no mystery to our success.

In response to customer demand for affordable applications, we have developed several code generators like:

• VB Workbench : generates functional Visual Basic code for MS Access and ODBC databases.

• TSOOVBW :  generated object oriented code for MS SQL Server

These code generators take care of virtually all database interactions. This can save more than 60% development time.
Transparent Systems passes these savings on to you by delivering solid applications faster and at less cost. 
Maintenance costs are substantially reduced as well.

These are products that are ready to use on Windows.

VB Workbench

This is our flagship product. VB Workbench generates MS Access and Visual basic code for an MS access database.  It generates a dictionary from the database, which can be useful during system design.

After the database is ready VB Workbench generates virtually all code required for IO and validation. VB Workbench contains in addition libraries with standard code that can be generated as well. A Company can add its own libraries and routines for a project.

A system with 40 tables can be built with VB workbench in a day time. This is a fully functional system with all maintenance functions and validation rules present.

There after the system can be enhanced with specific functions.
