Super Data Operations Manual

Numeric Edits

The Numeric Edit Control is similar to an Auto Label with a Spin Button already attached. It can only display numeric
values. Formatting and accelerated values are all controlled from the Numeric Edit property screen. Minimum and
maximum values lock the Numeric Edit into a specific range. It ignores spin button requests to exceed the min/max
limits and will reset any values manually entered to the minimum or maximum depending upon which value was
exceeded.

to use the same name for related objects, such as a Data Value that represents a Constant.

Date Pickers


The Date Picker is a slick control used to select dates. A handy calendar can easily be scrolled day-to-day, month-to-
month or year-to-year. In addition, it will change it’s display for International customers, showing the proper month
and day names and formatting the string accordingly. The Date Picker text box background is always white and the
text is always black. This is so, despite the ability to change fonts and all calendar colors.
