Add-Ins

Introduction

Validation allows to modify its behavior using VBA. Because of some limitations of this method, Validation
provides, starting with version 3.2, another way for interaction: add-ins .

An add-in for Validation is an

ActiveX Control

. An add-in allows to add new menu entries or create and use one

custom user control and one custom toolbar. In addition it is possible to easily handle the existing image control or to
replace the existing edit and fields controls with your own controls.

Add-ins also allow to react to mouse movements on the image control and to keyboard actions.

The following sections explain the new functions using a simple example. You will find this example in the
examples directory under

Tutorial

.

For detailed information study the complete example

ValiTour

contained in the examples directory. A detailed

description of the complete interface can be found in the reference file

ValRef.chm
