You can also define user and database events. User events provide a simple, effective way for actions in one frame to trigger actions in another frame. Database events provide communication between two applications that are connected to the same database.

User and database events are events that you name and define by providing the event code that executes when the frame receives the event. User events are sent using the SendUserEvent method, and database events are generated by Structured Query Language (SQL) statements and sent by the DBMS.

For more information about these events, see the Programming Guide.
