What is an Application Wizard?

Many people call FoxExpress an "Application Wizard," which is a very accurate description. FoxPro supplies wizards that help developers create individual pieces of an application. An application wizard is basically a collection of wizards that create the various components of an application, screens, reports, programs, queries, etc.

Unlike standalone wizards, the individual wizards in this collection of wizards know how to communicate with each other. In other words, FoxExpress' wizards not only create individual components, they also automatically integrate the items they create into your application. For example, when a screen is created in FoxExpress, FoxExpress takes care of adding the screen to the menu or calling screen, includes the appropriate calls to the event handler in the screen, and adds the application toolbar (if you're using one) to the screen set.
