VisiconX is a suite of the following four ActiveX objects:
- Data Control
- Grid Control
- ListBox Control
- ComboBox Control
The Data Control connects to any database and retrieves data. The Grid, ListBox, and ComboBox Controls display the data retrieved by connecting to the Data Control through object-to-object animation in iFIX and through pre-built script logic in CIMPLICITY.
The following illustration depicts how VisiconX works. In this figure, each Data Control is configured to access an OLE DB data provider.
- Data Control 1 animates the Grid Control, which displays the retrieved data in a spreadsheet-like format.
- Data Control 2 animates the ListBox Control.
- The ListBox Control animates the query property defined in the SQL Select statement of Data Control 1, which in turn filters the data displayed in the Grid Control.
