Rev 3.5 Nears Beta Release
Don't miss the upcoming Webinar that shows you how the exciting new data grid transforms presentation in your projects!

Grids Integrated

Last week, Revolution Enterprise users got their first look at a significant new feature in Revolution 3.5, the data grid.

The data grid control, enabled by the new object-oriented Behaviors (parentScripts) technology in Revolution 3.5, represents an incredibly flexible approach to presenting information for on-screen display and editing. Data grids not only handle massive amounts of information with lightning speed, but make it easy to produce virtually any kind of experience for your end users managing that data.

Later this month on March 26, we'll be hosting our first-ever Webinar on the new data grid control. Speakers will include RunRev CEO Kevin Miller and data grid author Trevor DeVore. Find out how you can participate!
