Create Great ASP Database Applications Right Out of the Box
The latest Kickstart ASP Demonstration application uses two Kickstart scripts to create a working file maintenance application for any Oracle, SQLServer or Access database that you choose. The example posted on the Westfaro web site uses a copy of the Northwind database that ships with Microsoft Access. What is there is exactly what popped out of the Kickstart code generator using the two scripts. Additional support files include a style sheet, a default page, and a few simple icons in a subfolder.

Create a Complete VB Project
Using the sample VB project scripts available for download from the Westfaro website you can create a complete VB application with the push of a button. Try it for yourself. You can use the Northwinds Access database supplied with the scripts or you can connect to any database of your choice. The VB Sample01 project packages all data manipulation code within the form while VB Sample02 demonstrates a class approach to data maintenance, separating code to access a database from code that displays information to the user.
