PROTECTED AddControlsForChosenFields (TableDesc, logical, character)

Purpose: Add controls (Label and DataControl) for each choosen field of the
currently processed table to the design canvas.
Notes: This Method is called by RecurseAddControls ().
First the name of the new Controls is build from the column name
and the SmartBindingSource Instance Name. Possibly the Name
occures more than once so it gets iterated from the second time on.
After this an UltraLabel and a Datatype specific EditorControl is
added to the Design Canvas.

Parameters:
oTable Progress.Data.TableDesc
The TableDesc to be processed
plPrefixWithTable LOGICAL
Shall ControlNames be prefixed with the TableName
cChoosenColumns CHARACTER
List of ColumnNames selected in the AddFields Dialog
Top

PROTECTED INTEGER CalculateControlWidth (ColumnPropDesc)

Purpose: Calculates the width for the control representing the column
Notes: This variant returns 150 as a constant. A derived type should return a width based on the column Format

Parameters:
poColumn Progress.Data.ColumnPropDesc
The ColumnPropDesc representing the current column
Returns INTEGER
The width for the control
Top

PROTECTED System.Windows.Forms.Control CreateControlForField (DataType, character, character, character)

Purpose: Create a Control for a field from the Design time binding source
Notes: Uses IDesignerHost:CreateComponent

Parameters:
poType Progress.Data.DataType
The DataType of the field
pcControlName CHARACTER
The name of the Control
pcColumnName CHARACTER
The name of the Column
pcColumnLabel CHARACTER
The label of the Column
Returns System.Windows.Forms.Control
The reference to the Control that was created
Top

PROTECTED System.Windows.Forms.Control CreateLabelForField (DataType, character, character, character)

Purpose: Create a Control for the label of a field from the Design time
binding source
Notes: Uses IDesignerHost:CreateComponent

Parameters:
poType Progress.Data.DataType
The DataType of the Control
pcControlName CHARACTER
The name of the Control
pcColumnName CHARACTER
The name of the Column
pcColumnLabel CHARACTER
The label of the Column
Returns System.Windows.Forms.Control
The reference to the Control that was created
Top

PROTECTED CreateVerbs ()

Purpose: Creates Designer Verbs based on the DesignerVerbs property
Notes:

Top

PROTECTED DesignerAddFields ()

Purpose: Add the selected Fields from the current schema of the
SmartBindingSource to the design canvas.
Notes: A Dialog is shown to select fields and if fields are selected
the Controls are added recursively.

Top

PROTECTED DesignerClearSchema ()

Purpose: Clear the currently present Schema of the SmartBindingSource.

A Dataset is filled with the Metaschema information and passed
to a .NET Dialog as XML information. After the user has
choosen one or more fields an Alias is created for the choosen
Database and a second Dataset is filled with the Schema
information of the choosen Table and Fields. This second
Dataset is then processed and every selected Field is added to
a Tabledescription variable witch is then set as the
TableSchema of the current SmartBindingSource Instance.
Notes: The Method may be overridden to import the schema from other
datasources
