subject: Development Tools?

Hello All!
I am getting back into development for Pdoxwin 5.0 after about a one year
absence. I am looking for development tools that will make the creation of a 
monster package a little easier.
1: I need a good library of processes that will build in multi-user/network 
protection across the board for forms, tables, records and reports. This 
application will have a few full-time data entry people, people updating 
current data all the time and others needing to view and print reports while 
all that other stuff is going on.
2: I am looking for a good on-line help editor that will import the object 
structure, buttons and stuff like that and create a passable on-line help 
system.
3: Easily create user prompted queries to produce reports for ranges of dates 
etc. Does Reportsmith do this?
4: A process for shifting resolution automatically for a bunch of different 
resolution and size screens. Some nodes are 19" & 17" high resolution 
workstations, others are 14" old VGA... The screens that look good on the vga 
are miniscule on the larger nodes. I created a setfocus process on the forms, 
but I would like a global process that looks at the sysinfo and sets it 
globally. Can it be done?
