I've got a PowerBuilder project that I want to inspect
but I don't have PowerBuilder installed .

I tried PB Peeper but it freezes when I try to browse through pbl files.

Does anyone know any sort of software that I can open and see the source Powerscript with ?

Thank you

the most simple I know is pbdumper (http://sebastien.kirche.free.fr/powerbuilder/en.html ) so you can extract source code as *.sr? files and view with any text editor.
