Hi Jeff,
Yes, DBXL 2.1 supports the webparts from DBXL 2.0. The new qForm in 2.1 allows you to manage your forms via an InfoPath UI. We developed qForm for people who:
- Don't have SharePoint
- Want better performance than SharePoint - just open qForm once, no need to open separate InfoPath forms all day long.
- Want browsing instead of full text search - using qForm's taxonomy feature, you can quickly pivot your forms
In addition, qForm comes with many out-of-box features that simplify form's development:
- Assigned To - see the forms that are assigned to you or someone else
- Notifications - get e-mail on overdue forms; see them in the user interface
- Multiple-language labels - the new qForm supports multi-language forms
- E-mail workflow - out-of-box routing of forms via e-mail with status and cc options
- Comment history - see who did what when; add comments
- Search - search for forms in the database
- Templates - create one form to use over and over again to submit data
and many more features I can't think of now.
After a long testing period, we will be releasing DBXL 2.1 in a week or two. In addition to qForm, the new DBXL contains many bugfixes and performance improvements. As always, we look forward to receiving your feedback.
Cheers!
