SECTION 12
Databases
CX-Supervisor Database facilities provide fast, transparent access to many
different data sources, via a database technology called ADO. Database
design is not covered here, as it is a large subject explained fully in any of the
many books available. It is assumed that developers using these database
facilities have a working knowledge of databases. Comprehensive Database
Script Functions allow complete database access.
The data sources which can be accessed depends on the Data Providers
installed, but may include:
•
MS-Access
•
MS-Excel
•
Visual FoxPro
•
dBase
•
ODBC for Oracle
•
Paradox
•
SQL Server
•
Text files (in TXT and CSV format)

Database Connection Editor
The Database connection editor in the Development Workspace, enables
users to create Connections, Recordsets, Field association, Parameter
association and Schema objects in a familiar Tree View (hierarchical) format,
using the popup menu.
This editor is unique in CX-Supervisor, in that actual database connections
can be tested online in the Development Environment. The ability to connect
online also has the added benefit of providing assistance in creating objects
lower down in the hierarchy. This editor has been designed to enable a large
proportion of the database functionality, to be performed automatically (i.e.
without the need for Script functions), although a comprehensive set of
Database Script functions are available.
