Jetpack is a collection of 11 ActiveX controls
designed to enhance any COM-based development language
with minimal effort and very little coding. Database
developers can use the Jetpack controls to build a
client application using whatever languages and tools
they are most familiar with, including Microsoft
Visual Basic, Visual C , Visual J , Borland Delphi,
Powersoft Powerbuilder, and Micro Focus Object Cobol.
Unlike conventional controls that are painted onto a
form and integrated into the rest of an application,
the Jetpack controls (most of them) are not visible at
run-time. A Jetpack control's functionality tend to be
of a higher-task. For example, adding the Table Design
control to your form at design time and a single line
of code gives you all the functionality needed to
create or modify a Jet database table including
fields, indexes, properties and attributes. Adding the
Queryer control to an application and setting a couple
of properties, gives you a fully featured visual ad-
hoc querying tool that allows users to interrogate a
wide range of data sources without any knowledge of
SQL. Similarly other controls in Jetpack give you
instant productivity across a range of database
operations. Jetpack includes very thorough online help
files, SQL tutorials, and Visual Basic source code
samples. Chisel Software has a strong commitment to
total product quality and functionality. Registered
