DBGrid, from APEX Software Corporation, is a data-aware grid OLE control (OCX) that ships with Microsoft Visual Basic 4.0. DBGrid allows end-users to browse, edit, add, and delete data in a tabular format. Using the latest data binding technologies built into Visual Basic 4.0, DBGrid completely manages the database interface, allowing you to concentrate on important application-specific tasks. You can also use DBGrid in an unbound mode with your own data source without binding to the Visual Basic Data control.
DBGrid was designed to be a powerful, versatile, and easy-to-use data presentation tool. If you are a beginning programmer, you can use DBGrid to create a fully functional database browser without writing a single line of code. If you are an experienced programmer, you can use DBGrid's many properties and events to create powerful and user-friendly database front-end applications.
Moreover, because DBGrid is an integral part of Microsoft Visual Basic 4.0, it was developed using the latest Microsoft OLE and data binding technologies. Work is also underway to make DBGrid compatible with other Microsoft development tools, such as Visual C++. When you use DBGrid, you know your applications will automatically satisfy all current and future Microsoft software standards, and will work on all Microsoft operating systems and development platforms. If long term stability and compatibility are the primary concerns for your company's mission critical applications, then DBGrid is your data grid of choice.
