Data Dynamics Analysis Beta 3 Is Now Available

Data Dynamics is pleased to announce the third beta release of Data Dynamics Analysis.

Click here to download ddAnalysis - Beta 3 (DDA_051850.zip)

Quick Look at What's New

  • Robust API for Connecting to various data sources
  • Undo / Redo functionality in Web control
  • View underlying data of selected data points
  • Many fixed cases (see table below)

Relational Data Source Control

There is one serious issue that should be mentioned when testing the control inside Visual Studio. When dropping the Relational Data Source Control onto a Windows Form, you must comment out the following code in the InitializeComponent() method:

  this.rdDataSource1.ConnectionString = null;
  this.rdDataSource1.CustomSchemaFile = null;
  this.rdDataSource1.QueryString = null;

Otherwise Visual Studio will display errors when attempting to display the dialog a second time (case 45444).
