I am putting together a report on available OOA/OOD tools, who uses them,
how they like them, etc. When I am finished, I will post some of the stats on what I found
 (no names, just stats from questionaire) that is, if you are interested. This poll
is NOT for marketing purposes...it is actually for a graduate report.

If you have an automated tool that you feel especially fond of, OR if you do not use an
automated tool, but use some other notable methodology OR you just have an opinoin
on some of the following questions...please send me some feedback by answering the
 following questions (please answer as completely as you can):

     ** When you are finished, please E-mail it directly to me at tinkrkel@america.net **

   1. What OO language (Smalltalk, C++, Objective C,  Eiffel, Obj Pascal, Modula, ETC.)
        do you primarily  use?

        in perspective)

  3.  Do you use an automated OOA/OOD tool (Rational Rose, Cadre OO, etc.)?

        If so,
            a. What platform do you primarily use?

                     (Access, Paradox, Informix,  etc)
                           * Does it support the OO paradigm?

                 * Does it support the OO paradigm?
                 * Does it do what you would like it to do?
                 *  Would you recommend it to others?

  7. If you had to choose a necessary "toolkit" for OO designers and programmers, what
      would you include?

  8. Is there another automated OOA/OOD tool that you have heard about, but haven't
