Constance, 11/16/2009 – With the release of version 15 German software house combit has introduced a new generation of the globally used software development component List & Label to the market. A look under the hood reveals that the new version offers two major features, among others. According to the company, the top features are a comprehensive and significantly faster data supply for .NET and the newly added drilldown reporting. These and other features have generated a strong demand and brought the manufacturer positive sales results. In comparison to last years October sales have increased by 7% according to combit.
List & Label project manager Jochen Bartlau nearly raves about the highlights of the most recent version. According to him the improved data supply for .NET means huge savings in time for the customer. “Until now, the data for data binding had to be loaded into a DataSet. The new version accesses databases directly.” The now existing solution saves users the equivalent of 25 pages of code and hence a lot of time. The second top feature will make daily reporting easier for developers and users alike: Drilldown reporting is a user-friendly way of preparing hierarchical data. Even with very large and complex databases, end-users can now quickly access the information they are looking for and export it in different formats. This means no more waiting in front of “red traffic lights” but reporting at an incredible pace.
Among further innovations and improvements, List & Label 15 now includes a 64-bit version and supports Visual Studio 2010 Beta 2 and RAD Studio 2010. The 64-bit version and features specific to the new Microsoft operating system Windows 7 make the reporting component future-proof. In addition the PDF export has been extended with the PDF/A-1a standard, which serves as a base for revision-secure archiving. List & Label 15 also supports the new GS1 barcodes, which will be in use as a new standard worldwide from 2010.
