Delphi would make a very elegant HMI development tool. Check out Abakus VCL ( "http://www.abakusvcl.com":http://www.abakusvcl.com )components to create HMI's. To connect to PLC's you could use the free modbus driver or you can use just about any commercial DDE or OPC
server (

It is more time effective to use an existing server than writing you own. Ive always wanted to do this myself!!!
