Yes, Dabo is quite stable. And the features you describe are
certainly able to be done.

Right now, the only generated code is the Wizard-generated code.
The Designer cannot yet create usable forms; it's still in the proof-
of-concept stage, until I can add in code editing and linking.

I would *not* recommend that you go with the AppWizard to do the
sort of custom things that you want to do. It would make much more
sense to create your app by hand; it may take a little more time
initially, but it will a) give you much more flexibility and b) give
you a better understanding of how Dabo works, which will enable you
to create better apps.

We don't use CVS; our repository in in Subversion. You can find
instructions for getting the latest and greatest from Subversion on
the Wiki: <http://dabodev.com/wiki/HowToInstall>

I would be more than willing to help you if you decide to go
with Dabo!
