C/S Professional 1.0
--------------------

Thank you for evaluating C/S Professional !

C/S Pro is not just another set of database components. There's a lot of good stuff out 
there providing enhanced grid components and things like that. C/S Pro is a set of highly 
intelligent components which work perfectly together with other database components and
give you powerful features for your applications not found anywhere else ( as far as I know):

· Auto-synchronized database forms without coding
· Soundex alogrithms for the english and the german language generate "soundalike" strings
  that can be stored and used in queries automatically
· "Hook" for custom soundex algorithms
· Automatic round functions for currency and float fields
· Dropdown calendar for date fields
· Automatic, sophisticated QBE functionality without coding
· Supports range selections, inversion ( NOT ) and basic comparison operators (=,<>,<,>) 
  through design time / runtime properties
· Network messaging component allows easy information exchange over the network
· Fully automatic "live" data on all db forms of your application over the whole network;
  all clients in the network talk to each other to trigger table and query refresh
  when needed (and only when needed: this is not just a stupid polling mechanism) !

All components need few or no coding at all to work.

Thinking about the future ? TCSPRO will be ported to 32bit as soon as possible.
Furthermore, the source code is available for additional 99 US$ !


Installation

Run TCSPRO.EXE to install the components and samples. After setup has finished sucessfully,
run Delphi and install the new component palette using Options/Install Components/Add (File
TCSPRO.DCU). 

If setup fails, copy TCSPRO.DCU, TCSPRO.DCR, TCSQBE.DCU, NETCOM.DCU, NETSYNC.DCU,
TCSLKP.DCU and CALPOP.DFM to a directory in your library search path (typically \delphi\lib);
finally, add TCSPRO.DCU to your component library.

To let the demos run please copy the CUSTOMER.DB and the CUSTSX.DB files from the samples
directory to your delphi/demos/data directory.

To register the components for 49 US$, go SWREG on CompuServe, #7679.
