WebForm Options

 

IIS Root Directory

 

Type or select the IIS root directory if different from the default. After the first WebForm is converted, a new project directory is created to contain the generated ASP.NET aspx and aspx.vb files as well as ASP project related files (.sln, .vbproject, etc.). An images sub-directory that contains all project images files (those supplied by this software and used by Access Forms)  is also created.

 

VS.Net Project Name

 

This field defaults to the name of the Access database. It is used to name the VS.Net project and as the sub-directory name that contains all project files. The Project Name may be changed must conform to VS.Net project and Windows directory naming rules.

 

Images Folder

 

The name used to create the images sub-directory within the current project that will be referenced by the WebForms. You can supply either a Windows directory  reference (using back slashes) or URL (using forward slashes).

 

Edit Buttons

 

When Datasheet Forms are created using ASP.NET Grid Controls and the Form's Navigation Bar property is set to False, buttons used Edit, Save, Undo, and Delete records included on the Grid. You may choose to place them on left (default) or right side of each Grid row.

 

Grid Attributes

 

Set the Grid Cell Padding (defaults to 2) and Cell Spacing (defaults to 0) attributes as desired.

 

Database Connection String

 

You can choose how database connection strings are employed by each WebForms VB code-behind module. When the Use Configuration File option is selected, the VB code uses the following statement to retrieve the connection string: System.Configuration.ConfigurationSettings.AppSettings("ConnectionString"). Note the configuration file (Web.Config, Machine.Config, etc.) must contain an attribute named ConnectionString that specifies a valid DBMS connection string.
