Über True DBInput Pro

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
