The Database Exchange ActiveX control lets you connect to a data source (for example a database), and extract, display, and edit recipe values.
To use the Database Exchange control, you need to insert it on a graphics page. At runtime, values are displayed in a table. Each column of data can be associated with a Citect SCADA variable tag, enabling recipe values to be written to tags. Data can also be sorted, filtered, printed, edited, and written back to the data source.
Citect SCADA supports connection from the Database Exchange control to all Windows-supported databases, including DBF, MDB, SQL Server, and OLEDB data sources.
You can access more information about the Database Exchange control by pasting it on to a graphics page and clicking the Help button on the associated Object Properties dialog.
