Migliora la chiarezza dei Memo di Access con le etichette dei collegamenti ipertestuali

Gennaio 13, 2026
Total Access Memo 2025 aggiunge collegamenti ipertestuali etichettati, consentendo nomi di collegamento intuitivi invece di URL completi per memo in formato RTF più chiari e professionali.

Total Access Memo is an add-on for Microsoft Access that enables rich text formatting within Access applications. It allows developers to create, edit, display, and store formatted text in tables while seamlessly showing it on forms and reports through easy data binding. The product provides a complete and reliable rich text editing environment, with all functionality also available programmatically via VBA, giving full control over configuration and integration. Total Access Memo is well suited for use cases such as managing detailed notes, comments, documentation, and narrative reports where clear, professional text presentation is required.

The Total Access Memo 2025 update introduces labeled hyperlinks that allow developers to display meaningful link text instead of full URLs within rich text memo fields. This enhancement improves readability and usability for end users by making links easier to understand, while also producing cleaner and more professional-looking content in forms and reports. From a development perspective, labeled hyperlinks support better accessibility practices and help ensure that rich text data remains clear, consistent, and user-friendly across Access applications.

Total Access Memo is licensed per user and is available as a perpetual license with an optional annual support subscription, which includes telephone and email technical support as well as upgrades. See our Total Access Memo licensing page for full details.

Integra la creazione di report nelle app VCL native

Gennaio 13, 2026
DevExpress VCL Subscription + 25.2 introduce un design moderno di report basato sul web con funzionalità guidate dall'IA per VCL.

DevExpress VCL Subscription + is an extended version of the standard DevExpress VCL suite, designed for Delphi and C++Builder developers who need both native Windows components and modern web-based tools. In addition to the full set of high-performance VCL UI controls, such as grids, charts, and editors, it includes web technologies like JavaScript, ASP.NET Core and Blazor UI libraries. This allows developers to integrate advanced web-based features directly into their VCL desktop applications using technologies like WebView,  enabling interaction between traditional VCL apps and modern web interfaces and making it easier to build hybrid solutions that combine the strengths of both environments.

The DevExpress VCL Subscription + 25.2 update adds a new VCL Reporting control (ExpressReports Suite) for building and displaying reports in native Windows applications. It is based on the DevExpress JavaScript Report Designer and Viewer, with AI features to support report generation and editing. The reporting interface runs inside a desktop app using WebView and ASP.NET Core. All required .NET and JavaScript components are included in a single executable file, which simplifies installation and removes the need for separate runtime dependencies.

To see a full list of what's new in 25.2, see our release notes.

DevExpress VCL Subscription + is licensed per developer and is available as a Perpetual License with a 12 month support and maintenance subscription. See our DevExpress VCL Subscription + licensing page for full details.

Controlla il comportamento delle app con prompt di IA

Gennaio 13, 2026
DevExpress Universal 25.2 aggiunge una nuova API che permette alle app di interpretare l'intento dell'utente e applicare modifiche direttamente ai componenti e alla logica dell'interfaccia utente durante l'esecuzione.

DevExpress Universal is a comprehensive suite of UI components and developer tools that supports the creation of feature-rich applications across web, desktop, and mobile platforms, including .NET, JavaScript, Blazor, ASP.NET, WinForms, WPF, and MAUI. It focuses on delivering consistent user interfaces, advanced data visualization, reporting, dashboards, and productivity features that help teams design, build, and maintain complex applications using a unified set of technologies and patterns.

DevExpress Universal v25.2 introduces AI Tool Calling (Natural Language Control for UI Components), a cross-platform feature that extends Microsoft.Extensions.AI tool-calling to enable natural-language interaction with application UI and logic. Developers can expose UI components, ViewModels, and business services as AI-invokable tools, grouped into dynamic toolsets that adapt to the application’s current context. When users interact through the DevExpress AI Chat Control, the language model interprets their request, selects the appropriate tool, resolves the target instance, and executes the action in real time, making applications easier to use while giving developers full control over what the AI can see and do.

DevExpress Universal is licensed per developer and is available as a Perpetual License with a 12 month support and maintenance subscription. See our DevExpress Universal licensing page for full details.

Filtra e personalizza i report con parametri

Gennaio 9, 2026
Applica filtri dinamici e condizioni definite dall'utente per fornire report più rilevanti, accurati e applicabili, personalizzati per scenari specifici.

Report parameters allow users to customize and control how data is displayed by filtering results or supplying specific values at runtime. This enables more personalized, relevant reporting without the need to create multiple versions of the same report. By using parameters, organizations can improve data accuracy, improve report management, and help users to explore insights independently. Common use cases include filtering reports by date range, region, department, or product, setting thresholds or targets for performance analysis, and dynamically updating dashboards based on user-selected criteria.

Several .NET reporting components include support for parameters:

  • Telerik Reporting facilitates parameterized reporting to customize data views, reuse reports efficiently, and support interactive decision-making for diverse audiences.
  • DevExpress Reporting lets you define parameters to filter data, personalize layouts, and deliver interactive, context-aware reports across applications and dashboards.
  • List & Label Enterprise Reporting Edition by combit lets developers use parameters to tailor output and reduce duplication.
  • Stimulsoft Reports.NET allows runtime parameters for dynamic filtering, user-driven input, and adaptable reports that respond instantly to changing business requirements.
