The login form enables you to connect to Oracle, SQL Server, Access or DB2 databases. In this example you'll connect to the classic Access sample database called Northwinds. The database is not password protected so there's no need to specify a username, password, or workgroup file. This form is generated by the SimpleLogin.ksc Kickstart script. |
|
| The generated mdiParent contains a menu item for each table in included in the Kickstart project. By selecting one of the menu items you can enable the data entry form for each table. The mdiParent is generated by the SimpleMDIParent.ksc Kickstart script. The mdiParent, login form, and supporting forms are included in the VB project file created by SimpleProjectFile.ksc. |

Every generated form in this example contains 2 tabs. The first tab, called the detail view, allows users to add, modify, and delete records to/from database tables. The second tab, called the list view allows a user to select a row from the table for modification. You can filter records from this view by modifying the underlying SQL used to populate the grid. Double-clicking a row on the grid sets the focus on the detail tab (tab 1) to that row. Combo boxes are generated for columns that have foreign key constraints to other tables. |
|
| By default, the list tab displays a record for every row in the underlying table. The number of rows and columns displayed are easily customizible. |

The mdiParent toolbar buttons control the operation of all forms in the generated project. By clicking the add toolbar button you can open all fields to allow data entry. When you're ready to post the data to the database simply click the save button. After saving the data the form locks all text, check, and combo boxes. |
|
| To modify an existing record simplily navigate to that record and click the change toolbar button. |
