Yeah Red: I've been using Delphi for 9 years now and I am definitely NOT a drag n drop type guy. The application I've been working on and selling to the book trade is a client/server piece of business management software which uses SQL (inner and outer joins ;-)) and is over 300,000 (no sh*t) lines of code. It is a fairly rapid language to develop in but you know it still takes hours to do fairly simple stuff, but yes less time than C++. Having interviwed many candidates I know exactly what you mean by the drag n drop brigade thinking they are real programmers, but I guess you've got to start somewhere.
