Features:
Paradox 9 allows users to store and retrieve data in a variety of ways
and lets them create professional forms, charts, and reports to display
the data. Paradox 9 is ideal for users who work with mission-critical
data and who depend on reliable and efficient software applications.
Paradox 9 is designed for sophisticated relational database users as
well as first-time database users. For first-time users, Paradox 9
provides tools and features that introduce the basics of the desktop
database application. Some of the new-user highlights include an online
tutorial, database templates, Welcome screen, Visual Database Designer,
and user aids such as SQL Query Expert and Find Duplicate Expert.
Advanced users will benefit from the redesigned table structure and
restructure dialogue boxes, dockable and customisable toolbars, and the
Visual Query Builder. Paradox 9 is designed to let users import and
export files from various programs, including Microsoft Excel and
Microsoft Access , without significant changes or modifications. ODBC
drivers are also included to enable data sharing between different
database applications. In addition, Paradox 9 has backward and forward
compatibility so that files created in earlier versions of the
application can be used in Paradox 9 and vice versa. It also supports
Rich Text Format (RTF), .DOC, and .WPD file formats so users can share
their reports; JPEG file format; and the Microsoft IntelliMouse so users
can scroll and zoom in a table, form, or report. Paradox 9 includes the
latest in Internet technology, so users can easily create Internet and
intranet solutions. The Paradox Web Form Designer allows users to design
electronic forms without writing code in WYSIWYG format by using
embedded JavaBeans, meaning that users can drag and drop text boxes and
drop-down lists and other objects. The Paradox JDBC driver is a tool to
connect Java programs such as the Web Form Designer to databases such as
Paradox. The HTML Table and Report Experts allow users to publish
up-to-date data in Paradox tables and reports to a Web page, meaning
that once a Paradox document is published to a Web page, the data is
updated each time a user accesses that page. |
