------------

Caption Controls is a set of components that save you form space 
by eliminating the need to label your controls. Caption Controls 
seamlessly incorporates captions with edit controls into
an eye catching user friendly data entry metaphor (ala Quicken) that
will greatly enhance the look and feel of your application.

Caption Controls contain the following components:

TCaptionEdit
TCaptionCombo
TDBCaptionEdit          {NEW!}
TDBCaptionCombo         {NEW!}
TDBCaptionLookupCombo   {NEW!}

These components are fully functional, but can only be used while Delphi 
is running.

Registered users will receive the release package, which has no limitations,
and includes full source code. Register online for $20, GO SWREG #7544.
