Vendor's Description (from Readme files, web site, etc.):
The following are excepts from the vendor's
description.
- All the Features of Access are available to you through
this Components (e.g. DB User Administration, Data
encrytion, DB-Repair, DB-Compression, ...)
- This package includes enhanced versions of many of the
standard Data Control. For example, DB-Memo, DB-Image, and
DB-Mediaplayer recognize drag-and-dropped Files.
-
Online Help Available now
- These components were developed because the developer
needed a solution for a software they were developing for a
customer.
- These components support Master - Detail
dependencies.
- TDAOMediaPlayer and TDAOMediaPlayerScreen components
play Audio and Video directly from a Field in some Table of
the Database.
- Parameters for Stored Procs supported now (Property:
TDAORecordSet. StoredProcParameters - No Help so far)
- New Field Type TDAOCurrencyField. The standard Delphi
TCurrencyField interprets Access Currency Fields as Double
not as Currency.
- Design Dialogs usable at Runtime now (read: Design
Dialogs at runtime - Help Topic. Lookup Help Index for
this)
- AbsolutePosition and PercentPosition Properties
synchronize the Data aware Controls now.
- The TDAOSearchStrEdit has a new Property: SearchField.
Refer to Help File for more Information about the new
TDAOSearchStrEdit.
- Locate works for stored procs now.
- New Method in TDAORecordSet: RecomputeSQLParameter (Read
Help for SQLAutoComputeParameter Property)
- Passwords are now stored to the Resource File (*.dfm)
encrypted. If you have used Password in DAOWorkspace
Components you have to correct them once since they will be
decrypted from correct representation. I used an encryption
algorithm that should be save enough for this purpose.
- Values of Byte Fields are shown correctly now.
- Support of Stored Procedures. You can use selecting and
modifying stored procedures with GMDao now. But no
parameterized ones are supported too.
- TeeChart Editor Component included.
New Feature:The following features can be used directly
from the Delphi IDE now:
- Database Design Editor (Does not support Relations so
far)
- Table Design Editor
- Stored Procedure Design Editor
- Field Design Editor
- SQL Query Viewer with Data Export CapabilitiesQuick Data
Viewer with Data Export Capabilities
BDE Alternatives Guide Comments:
I have not examined the technical capabilities of these
components, which may be very good. The developer indicates
that he has removed all known bugs.
User feedback about this product has been positive.
