HTML forms provide some user interaction by means of a limited user interface. The PowerBuilder window ActiveX takes you beyond HTML. You can present a fully developed application window with a rich user interface design to a Web page. You can access data sources defined on the client workstation.
Your application might be:
A data analysis window with master and detail DataWindows
A user interface design that lets the user make choices using TreeView, ListView, and PictureListBox controls
A data entry form that processes data on a server
A data entry form that uses the client’s defined database connection (either network or local) to process the data on the client machine
A window that uses PowerBuilder’s OLEControl control to display an ActiveX control
