Collect accurate, formatted user input. True DBInput Pro is a collection of eight high quality, data-aware ActiveX input controls and five objects designed to give developers the tools they need to build enterprise-wide Internet/intranet database front-end applications. These enhanced controls replace the text, calendar, mask, edit box, and frame controls in Visual Basic for formatting data input, and add objects tailored for financial applications.

True DBInput Pro is part of ComponentOne Studio Enterprise and the ComponentOne Studio for ActiveX.

True DBInput Pro includes two new controls (TDBCalendar and TDBContainer3D), five new ActiveX objects, and more than 100 new properties. An external editor interface has also been added to permit many of the True DBInput Pro controls to be integrated directly into True DBGrid Pro.

The two new controls:

TDBCalendar - displays up to 12 months of date information and provides international character support, enhanced calendar displays, and holiday settings

TDBContainer3D - is a redesigned and optimized 3D effects container for all of the True DBInput controls. Effects can be applied to all or individual child controls within the container

New ActiveX Objects:

TDBDateX provides detailed date and time information, and can be used as an external object for TDBDate and TDBTime controls

TDBDTCalcX calculates dates and times with user-defined business logic

TDBFinancialX performs complicated tax and financial calculations

TDBHolidayX manages holidays and can be used with the TDBCalendar control

TDBTZoneX calculates time differences between time zones for international time awareness and more

Main Features Include:

Full support for Internet Explorer - True DBInput Pro 8.0 supports Internet Explorer (4.0 or greater) and other ActiveX-compatible browsers

Integration with True DBGrid Pro 7.0 - True DBInput Pro 8.0 controls can be used as the editor for cells in a True DBGrid Pro 8.0 control by setting the ExternalEditor property of the grid’s column object

Spin buttons - New spin buttons allow end-users to quickly increment and decrement numeric values

Smooth input and navigation - Provides superior data input, selection, and key navigation styles

Caption settings - Control captions now permit customization of both background color and 3D text effects

Vertical alignment - Control text may now be aligned vertically, as well as horizontally

Masking of passwords - True DBInput Pro 8.0 supports password entry features, hiding each character actually typed, and displaying a predefined mask character in its place

Insert/overwrite mode - While editing in any of the True DBInput Pro 8.0 controls, pressing the Insert key toggles between input and overwrite modes
