}APDA used to sell the "Desktop ToolKit" (or some such name) which contained an

I have a copy. It doesn't work 100% though. If you recall, the product
never made it to final release stages. I had fun playing with it though.
I don't do anything with it anymore and don't wish to part with it
anytime soon :)

It was easy to design stuff with the toolkit though. You could have the
basic GUI front-end done in a matter of days/weeks without trying much.
