This software component enhances Delphi's TDBLookupComboBox, providing additional functional capabilities.
If you need to enable your end-users to enter, edit, or select a value for a particular field from a dropdown list of values that is populated from a second lookup table, then this component is exactly what you need. This component is designed to greatly expand upon the capabilities of Delphi's built-in TDBLookupComboBox component.
This component comes with a host of enhancements that make it stand out from other similar components in the market. For instance, you can select any number of fields to display in the drop-down list, making it highly customizable. Your end-users can also incrementally search through the lookup list by directly typing into the combo control while the lookup list is displayed. This feature is highly useful when dealing with lookup tables that contain hundreds or even thousands of records.
Another advantage of this component is its ability to automatically detect when a user's entry is not in the lookup list and allows you to perform an action as a response. Furthermore, the values in the dropdown list are sorted based on the first field you select to display. If it's a secondary index field, the values would be sorted in that order, rather than primary key order.
If you're interested in checking out more features, you can visit the demo. The download file contains Delphi packages and a sample application that demonstrates the working of the component. You'll find viewing the demo easier than installing the component and experimenting for yourself. Overall, if you need to give your end-users the ability to enter, edit, or select values from a dropdown, this is definitely the component to consider.
