Royalties

Languages Supported

SftTree/OCX supports all popular ActiveX (OCX) platforms, such as Visual Studio .NET, Visual Basic, Visual C++, Delphi and many more.  Feature limitations may exist depending on the platform used. These are generally caused by the platform, rather than our control product, which implements the current ActiveX control standards specifications.  Notably drag & drop and cell editing may be limited or unavailable in some control containers.

Environments Supported

SftTree/OCX supports Windows 2000, Windows XP, Windows Server 2003, Windows Vista, Windows Server 2008, Windows 7 and Windows Server 2008 R2 using the same set of properties, events and methods.

UNICODE support is available for all platforms. 

Windows 98 and Windows ME are no longer supported. For support of these platforms, SftTree/OCX 6.0 must be used instead.
