Perhaps what Pascal was remembering is the "Visual Ada" product
trademarked and sold by Aetech in the 1993-1994 time frame.  This Visual
Ada was an option for Aetech's IntegrAda for Windows product.  It was a
GUI builder very similar in appearance to the one in Microsoft's  Visual
Basic 1.0.  I bought 20 copies to use for an Ada class at Holloman AFB,
NM in 1994. 

See IntegrAda for Windows, Version 1.2 in

Apparently Aetech has been out of business for some time. They used to
have a Web site at www.pcada.com but it is no longer active.
