TwwDBComboBox replacement
Hi All,

I'm moving application done in Delphi 4 to 2007 and during
conversion trying to minimize number of different component
packages used.

I have used TwwDBComboBox a lot and find it hard to replace
without considerable rewriting.

Using TwwDBComboBox lets me define both item and value
at same line making code more readable and easier to debug,
no need to separate Items and Values.

Example:

cboTest.Items.Clear;
cboTest.Items.Add('Item 1'+#9+'1');
cboTest.Items.Add('Item 2'+#9+'2');
cboTest.Items.Add('Item 3'+#9+'3');
cboTest.ApplyList;

Any ideas how to replace this component ?

TIA

Pentti,

Our Data Aware Lookup ComboBox is a descendant of the Borland/CodeGear
TDBLookupComboBox, and its main aim is to supply UI Features like our other
controls.

I'll look into the possibility of adding an "Add" method like you suggest,
but no promises at this stage...
