[2005/1/3] The Excel software company officially launched Wina & D 4.0. This is used for requirement management, software modeling,CodeEngineering tools for generating, re-engineering, and report generation. Including GM, Raytheon, Northrop-Grumman, and Lockheed Thousands of software developers from companies such as Martin, IBM, EDS, and CSC use Wina & D for Structural Analysis and Design, multi-task design) UML-based object-oriented design and database design.

Then, the SQL schema code is generated for an RDBMS. Wina & D provides an integrated solution for demand management, supporting requirement identification, description, grouping, tracking, and control. It also provides code generation support for object-oriented, structured, and database design. This function can be used with wintranslator to generate a class model, structure, and data model from the code. In addition, verification, balancing, Import and Export commands help to process information, check errors, and share work with other users, development tools, and platforms. The embedded full script supports report generation tools to generate a large number of standard reports in HTML and word formats, from which project information can be browsed. Wina & D is applicable to Windows 95 to XP and various new Windows versions. The full developer version price is $1995.
