Dart Communications / Microsoft

Dart Communications was founded in 1994 for the specific purpose of creating quality components designed to support Internet communication development. Dart's development teams carefully design each component for ease-of-use and maximum range of effectiveness for both beginners and advanced developers alike. The results are tools that function in many development environments, such as .NET, Visual Basic, Visual C++, PowerBuilder, ASP, Delphi, C++ Builder and Office 97/XP.

Dart's popular PowerTCP line includes components such as FTP, Mail, Zip Compression, SSL, SNMP, Web, Telnet, and Winsock. These components have enabled the efficient development of applications such as secure electronic trading by a major telecommunications company using an industry specific protocol, the creation of a multilingual bookstore that uses a custom web server without relying on IIS, centralized network management tools for the operation of multinational networks, and an automated database update for outside sales teams on the road. Other applications include adding capabilities to Microsoft Office such as the ability to auto-update an Excel application from an AS/400 server and automating Access to push the latest data to an FTP Server. : These are just a few of the projects the PowerTCP line has helped to create.

Companies such as Chase Manhattan Bank, Blue Cross/Blue Shield, America Online, Compaq Computer, American Express, and thousands of consultants and individual project teams rely on Dart's quality code, breadth of capability, and customer service. Designed in object-oriented methods, the tools easily make the change from ActiveX to .NET framework, allowing these users to transition the product as appropriate for their own environments.

Create real-time client-server communications without postbacks in any Web application. PowerWEB LiveControls for ASP.NET is a suite of 20 AJAX enabled (Asynchronous JavaScript and XML) controls that allow you to build Web applications that don't require a postback. Just like the Microsoft intrinsic controls, LiveControls trigger events in code-behind, but do not require the client browser to be refreshed when data is sent back to the browser. Commonly known as Ajax, or client callback, this technique helps you create richer and cleaner Web applications by eliminating the flicker and delays associated with a postback, providing a smoother Windows-like behavior for the application. No need for Flash, Java Applets, or complex JavaScript, and extensive browser compatibility is automatically provided.   View More
