If you're used to Delphi, you might get a lot out of RadPHP (formerly
known as Delphi for PHP). Unfortunately, for those of us that aren't
familiar with Delphi, there is quite a learning curve, and the poor
documentation isn't as helpful as I would like. However, I've found that
now that I at least have the debugger working, it may be worth the price
in itself.

I looked briefly at CakePHP, but it doesn't appear to support the
database we use, and doesn't appear to be graphically oriented. To me, a
RAD tool should be more than just a framework to code with. But maybe
I'm just spoiled by PowerBuilder. :)
