TClassicDBEdit Component Version 1.0 Copyright (c) 1999, Antony Pranata (http://www.sharedev.com/valley/antonypr) ========================================= TClassicDBEdit is a descendant class of TDBEdit which allows you to use the "old" DOS editing and navigating key. For example, you can use Enter as Tab, PgUp to move to the prior record, PgDn to move to the next record, Up to move to the prior field, Down to move to the next field, etc. I create this component because I have to convert my users is more comfortable with "old" DOS key (they do not like to press Tab after editing a field). The use of this component is very easy. Just drop the component to a form, and set its property just like the "standard" TDBEdit component. You may use this component in any kind of development, including shareware and comercial software. However I would appreciate if you give me a credit in your applications. You may also distribute the source code of this component FREELY as this notice is not removed and you may not have any income from distributing it.
