[Jython-dev] Application Problem

[Richard K. <ric...@wk...>]

I am struggling with the best way to do a (personal) application that
involves:

Creating a browser-based GUI with several data elements
   (these elements will be clicked on for data entry). What do I use to create
this front end?
These data elements will be put into a database. What database should  I use?
Five different sub-applications will be run against the data in the database.
What should be used for these applications?
Output will be reports and graphs based on the respective sub-application
output data. The access
   will also be browser based. You will click on the report or chart you want
to look at. What should I use for this output portion?

I'm looking at VB with an  Access Database, with Crystal Reports for the
output.

Also VB.Net with Access.

Also Java, although I'm very unsure of what I would need here.

Then someone told me about Python. Do you think Jython would be a good
solution here? I'm willing to spend the time learning whatever I need to do
this. Thanks for any input. Dick K.
