needs of beginning and advanced users alike. Lasso Studio Configuration
Wizard links database schema information for dynamic display throughout
Lasso Studio for Dreamweaver. Lasso Studio Site Builder and Form Builder

Supports Multiple Databases and Platforms

Lasso Studio for Dreamweaver operates on the primary platforms for Web
application development including Windows and Macintosh. Lasso Studio for
Dreamweaver allows Web developers to quickly Web-enable any Lasso
compatible database including SQL Server, Oracle, MySQL, Access, 4D,
FileMaker Pro, Sybase, Informix and more. Solutions created using Lasso
Studio for Dreamweaver easily migrate and scale across multiple databases
and platforms with little or no modification.

Easily Build Robust Web Applications

Unlike competing solutions that require the complex combination of
differing technologies (e.g. SQL, VBScript, JScript, Java, JavaScript, XML
and server-side markup tags) to accomplish basic database access and
server-side scripting routines, Lasso offers an easy to master HTML-like
tag-based language that provides a common approach for both database access
and server-side scripting. As a result, Lasso developers attain
unparalleled productivity allowing them to focus less on the complexities
of building data-driven Web pages and more on creating visually and
functionally rich Web applications. Now with Lasso Studio for Dreamweaver
version 1.5, the Lasso approach to building Web applications is easier than
ever.
