There used to be a 30 day or 60 day trial version of DevStudio, I don't know if that is still available. It contains all you need to do your consulting business. As the book says: 'Contact your local IBI representative' to find out if this still is an active product.

Like GamP says, please contact your local IBI office to even get a trial version. I am not sure if you can just download it directly from the website without the support rep's involvement.

Trial copy? As in Free? I don't think that's around anymore... You should have some screen shots, at least, of your work if your're a consultant with tangible experience. I use that quite often... Even on my website...

There are 60 and 90 day demo versions available; however these are not normally made available to individuals.

You can not access or download any IB software unless you are a licensed customer and have a current maintenance contract.

IB have never made demo/trial versions freely available and I doubt that they ever will.
In fact they will not normally sell Dev Studio unless the customer has a fully licensed
version of WebFOCUS, after all it is a development tool not a standalone system.

Your only option would be to have a very, very good relationship with your local IB
office manager and see if there is anything they are willing to do to help you out.

The next best thing is to become a Business Partner or to gain access to someone who has what you need and to use THEIR WebFOCUS...
