| Who are DotNetGenie's target users?

In addition Webmaster, DBA's, and IT Professionals can easily build a Web interface to their respective database.

|
| Can I modify the solution/projects/code that DotNetGenie create for me?
|
| Yes. For example you may add your business rules to the Business Layer created by DotNetGenie and enhance the solution created by DotNetGenie. DotNetGenie creates two classes of business & data layer per table. The first class is created with a 'Must Inherit' declaration and contains all the code generated to access the data (called the Base class.) The second which inherits from the Base class is where all the customizations can be added. This allows users to keep the DotNetGenie generated code separate from customized code.
