Define Your Data Validation

Check out the latest VS.NET add-ins, including a product that lets you define your data validation only once.

Aurora Validation .NET
Aurora Validation .NET lets you define your data validation only once. The validation becomes central, manageable, and portable—available for reuse either for other product interfaces or provided to clients for safe interfacing. Aurora Validation .NET can also help you create the interface, because it contains all the relevant information. Aurora separates your application's validation routines, whether based on input controls or a data source. $450 Professional; $700 Enterprise.

VBSALT 1.0
VBSALT accelerates speech application development on the Microsoft Speech Server platform. Incoming calls arrive from the public network and are answered by Speech Server, which communicates with the application server running VBSALT. As the caller progresses through the call flow created in VBSALT, the required SALT tags for call control and speech processing are generated dynamically and passed to Speech Server—a process that's transparent to the application developer. The graphical design environment features a drag-and-drop interface with fully programmable controls, and a comprehensive set of high-level telephony and speech-building blocks. You can use the full power of Visual Studio .NET for programming and debugging, and event-driven customization of call-flows is supported in any VS.NET language.
