- ************************* Paradox Engine Demo **************************
- ************************* by John W. Jaster **************************
- What we have here is a pretty simple demonstration of the Paradox engine
- (PXENGWIN.DLL) used with Visual Basic. You must have the DLL to use this
- demo.
-
- Unzip the PXDEMO file into your \VB directory and bring up the PXTEST
- project. I didn't include the exe so just make an exe from the project.
- It permits you to select a paradox database (two are included) and to
- look at the contents of each field. The next/prev buttons retrieves the
- appropriate records into a buffer (pxrec) for field display.
-
- The good thing about this demo is the exhaustive PXENGWIN.BAS & PXTEST.BAS
- files. These two little beauties give you nearly (alas!) everything you need
- to fully utilize the Paradox engine under VB. Most of the functions that
- I have declared have been tested in this and other projects (though not all!).
- I have added a few global functions to make life easier; they can also be
- found in the PXENGWIN.BAS file.
-
- I have taken the time to package and upload this demo as payback for all the
- help I have recieved from the many files I have downloaded over the years.
- Use this in good health and happiness, knowing that I have done most of the
- grunt work for you, and remember to upload your own demo's to save the rest of
- us a little time and effort.
