QMF Application Development Overview

You can use many of the functions of QMF in your own applications. For example, you can write applications that:

• Run queries or procedures
• Export or import QMF objects
• Display or print reports or charts
• Enable the user to enter or change data in the database

You can also write applications that provide helpful functions to your users in QMF, such as a user-defined command that prints QMF reports at a remote location, or a function key that automatically generates a chart of the weekly sales results.

This chapter describes the two major types of QMF applications and the application development tools QMF provides to help you implement your application.
