@hpalmer i will do for learning for sure. I am preparing now for PS and VA state specific exam. Been reading wattles last couple nights. Always studying and trying to learn all of this.

The final compilation was dos based but would run in a dos box inside windows. This is likely why Trimble deep sixed it.
That's pretty much it - plus issues with memory management and licensing.
A good deal of the codebase underlying Trimble's GeoSpatial product line today stems from there. It formed the basis of many libraries used today. Some of it might even still be the original code...
@jimcox When i am in Trimble Business Center i see some sdrmap thinking and Terramodel thinking. I guess that is why i am able to figure it out quicker than i can civil3d. Survey controller was easy to transition to because it was not that different than some of the sdr 33 flow and terminology. Now access is a beast. I did a half day course at the office not long ago for my field crews showing some of its cogo power. Trying to make my life a bit easier than receiving a phone call to compute a point or set up a building on same bearing as a property line or road etc. now they can do a lot themselves. Simple stuff like identifying encroachments and such with point to line etc.

Yes, TBC is sort of a bastard love-child of the pair of them.
Quite some effort goes into keeping TBC and Access workflows and functionality aligned. TBC will always be able to do much more than Access - but it should do it in a way that makes sense to an Access user
Did you ever play with Trimble Geomatics Office (TGO)?
@jimcox I have used TGO and its predecessor GPSurvey. We had the military add ons for go survey and then also tgo. Loved tgo. I like tbc for the ability to combine different data types. Gps terrestrial etc levels. Some kinks still but tbc in my opinion is not far from a total package. So computations processing and cad deliverables. I am close to doing everything in TBC. I men everything from start to finish deliverables. I am actually trying it on a project now. Have a guy that is going to get me over the hump soon and train me more on the dynaviews etc drafting side. I have been experimenting with what i have self taught myself on that side and now i am at a road block. And it’s mostly the drafting and inserting into a title block that i can pass off to civil 3d users as well if i need help. Civil 3d is the standard where i am. But what i have learned is if done correctly i can be just as productive in tbc. Now many in house clients and external clients need civil 3d so i have to balance that oh and microstation bently.
