Component recomendation

trinode

Hello,

This is not strictly a fastreport question, but I am impressed with the report designer, and the way it is implemented.

In my software I need a way for users to design their own data entry forms, drag on buttons and combo boxes etc and set the properties on them.

A bit like visual studio, but simple, and for the end user.

Can you recomend an end user form editor that will allow such things to be designed by an end user?

I ask because the report editor uses a pretty good control, similar to what I need.

Thanks,

- Anthony

Hello,

You may use FastReport designer to do this:

Report report = new Report();
DialogPage dialog = new DialogPage();
report.Pages.Add(dialog);
report.Design();

Thanks for the info, but I want to add custom winforms dialogs to my app, not in a report, a bit like this:-

but that component looks poor quality, and very limited.

Also, I will try ODBC today, very happy with your speedy response with this.
