Visual Expert rounds out the results provided by the PB Migration Assistant by providing specific rules to detect unsupported code in PowerBuilder 2022 and later versions, ensuring a smooth migration.

Quick Search

The new Quick Search feature displays results in a simple list within the treeview, making it easy to find and access desired strings with markers in the source code view.
