Three styles of applications

In Superbase applications it is generally known that there are three distinct styles of applications:

Applications that have no real code structure, other then a few adhoc procedures that are called when needed. These are the simplest type of programs and generally are driven by the user's interaction with the form.

Applications that have a lot of code, but the code is driven in response to actions taken on the forms, menubars, or iconbars. These are more complicated then type 1 programs, and can run on any Superbase system

Applications that are driven by the program, but the program temporarily turns control over to the form during data entry, otherwise the program is always running and always "in command" of what's happening. Most sophisticated programs and Superbase runtime applications are designed this way.
