Or simply connect InputPanel for WinForms to a data source, select the record set and an input control for each field is automatically created for you.
Make changes to your form without worrying about restructuring the entire form with InputPanel for WinForms' automatic alignment, tab order, accelerator key assignment, and validation. This easy setup paired with low maintenance yields increased productivity. Stop spending hours building data forms, when you can generate polished, interactive data forms in minutes with InputPanel for WinForms.
DynamicHelp for WinForms
View Help files in WinForms applications with ComponentOne DynamicHelp for WinForms. Conceptually similar to using ToolTips, DynamicHelp for WinForms also provides Help on individual controls. The main difference is that ToolTips typically contain only a single sentence or paragraph. An actual Help topic, by contrast, typically contains more content, often including hyperlinks, images, tables, and more. This type of Help system is available in applications such as Microsoft Visual Studio, Microsoft Office, and ComponentOne Doc-To-Help.
