The OpenEdge Ultra Controls for .NET (Ultra Controls) include additional controls that can be used for developing OpenEdge GUI for .NET applications. These Ultra Controls are a set of supported Infragistics NetAdvantage Windows Forms controls that provide built-in features different from those provided by the Microsoft controls. These built-in features allow developers to create forms with sophisticated user interfaces primarily by setting a rich set of properties.
