The SSW Data Entry Standard Form

This is what the new SSW Standard Form for Data Entry looks like.

Figure: SSW Standard Form

This form provides a form from which you should inherit for your data entry projects. It provides the OK, Cancel and Apply button on the bottom right hand corner and the New, Delete and Search Toolbar on the top with File and Help menu Item on the menu bar. The inherited form is used to keep a consistent look and feel throughout our applications.

To add this look and feel to your application, carry out the following simple steps:

1. Add the SSW.Framework.WindowsUI project to your solution
2. Add a reference to that project in your current project.
3. Change the inheritance of your form from:  System.Windows.Forms.Form  to:  SSW.Framework.WindowsUI.StandardForm
