Description
Form used to create search fields. While typing, suggestions are shown below the form in a list.
The dbSuggestionForm is a subclass of the regular dbForm, which means that it also inherits all of that class' features. The suggestion form is highly customizable, supporting searching of multiple table columns and, incremental and full text search and multiple sources.
The logic for determining the suggestions shown in the list can be configured by setting the peSuggestionMode property.
If pbFullText is set to True, it will perform a full text search, which is optimized for SQL databases using the DataDictionary SQL filtering API.
The cDbCJGridColumnSuggestion class is a grid column class with the same features.
