TBrowse and Tables
 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------

  Tables -Browses- are one of the most typical xBase elements.

  Clipper has potentiated traditional 'Browses', with its predefined
  Class TBrowse. Really, a Clipper TBrowse is more a 'Query' from
  other environments instead of a 'dBase' Browse.

  Thanks to Clipper's TBrowse we can perform very powerful queries on
  a data base, selecting on different criteria, etc... Actually there is
  a lot of documentation on how to get the maximum performance from a
  Clipper TBrowse Object.

  When we were implementing Clipper in Windows we founded some problems
  typical to a graphical environment. Clipper's TBrowse is designed to
  use absolute screen coordinates. In Windows there is no absolute
  coordinates because the letters of a font use different widths.
  So, it will be only possible to use a Clipper TBrowse if we decide
  to use a predetermined letters width font.

  FiveWin implements its own GT module -GTW.c- which has been designed
  to use the Windows SYSTEM_FIXED_FONT font.

  Due this limitations and because we wanted to enhance TBrowse
  possibilities we decided to build our own TBrowse we have called
  TWBrowse. Its way of working is practically the same as the TBrowse
  class, so you will have no difficulties in adapting that class to
  your needs using OOPS or just modifying its source code.

  We have enhanced TWBrowse to have a nice 3D look and to give it
  the ability to display Bitmaps.

  Lets suppose we want to show the name and surname of a Client:

  @ 2, 2 LISTBOX FIELD Client->Name, Client->Surname

  This command creates a TWBrowse Object which display the desired
  information on the screen in a Browse format.

  Review the examples that comes with FiveWin to see how you should
  use TWBrowse correctly.

  If you are going to design a Dialog Box from a Resource editor and
  you want to include a TWBrowse Browse, you have to specify in the
  resource editor that you are going to use a 'personalized' control.
  In Borland's Resource WorkShop this is accomplished by selecting the
  button which has a 'key' picture on it, and that will open a Dialog
  Box where you have to write the word TWBrowse. When the resource
  is generated it will use that class build upon. Also you
  must specify, in the same Dialog Box, its style. Make an 'OR' with
  the current settings:

          ... | WS_BORDER | WS_TABSTOP | WS_VSCROLL | WS_HSCROLL

  Look inside the DLLs (using your resource editor) we provide as
  examples with FiveWin to check the correct way of doing it. Open
  those DLLs from the resource editor and check how a TWBrowse is
  designed.

  Have a look inside BorlDlg.dll we supply.
