Hi Tracy,

I've used the Component Toolbox suite of controls from DBI for two years and I highly recommend it (and not just because DBI is located in Winnipeg :-)

Most of my usage has been in VB6 apps, but I've also used some of the controls in VFP6 and 7 apps - and encountered no problems.

DBI is one of the few ActiveX players that provide a sample VFP project to illustrate how to use the controls.

These controls were a very good investment for the type of development work I've been involved in.

Regards,

Al

>It looks like a framework for our existing application is out of the question, but incorporating separate components into it is not. We are looking at dbi-tech's component toolbox and wondering if anyone has any experience using them and incorporating them into their apps. Is it tricky? Worth the cost? Is it any quicker developing using their tools than in vanilla vfp? Here is the link:
