Abstract: Provided herein are systems and methods for isolating a target from a biological sample. In some aspects, provided herein are automated systems and methods for isolating a target from a plurality of biological samples. For example, provided herein are automated systems and methods for isolating viral nucleic acid from a biological sample using a magnetic force to draw the nucleic acid out of a liquid biological sample.

Abstract: Provided herein are devices and methods for isolation and detection of an analyte from a sample. In some embodiments, provided herein are devices and methods of use thereof for vertical flow-based isolation and detection of analytes in a liquid sample, such as a urine sample.

Abstract: Embodiments are provided for creating and reusing custom data types in a database. A selection of a field or group of fields may be received from a database table in the database by a database software application executing on a computer system. Each selected field may include a set of field properties. The application may further receive a user input to initiate saving the selected field or group of fields as a custom data type. In response to receiving the input, the application may be configured to generate a dialog for receiving custom data type information for the selected field or group of fields and save the selected field or group of fields as a custom data type. The custom data type may then be reused by the application in the database.

Abstract: Technologies are described herein for generating a user interface based on a relational data model. A relational data model may be received. The relational data model may define a plurality of tables including a first table and a second table. The first table may include a first plurality of fields, and the second table may include a second plurality of fields. Relationships between the plurality of tables in the relational data model may be identified. A plurality of forms may be generated based on the relationships as identified. Each of the plurality of forms may correspond to one plurality of tables. The plurality of forms may be linked based on the relationship. The user interface including the plurality of forms as linked may be generated.

Abstract: A gallery-set of controls and actions containing pre-built logic is provided for building applications, projects and solutions in a database program. The gallery may include the most commonly used controls that may account for the main logic scenarios in the database program. The controls may be simple, clear and intuitive, such that users with little or no programming experience may be able to develop solutions in the database program using the gallery controls without having to enter any coding environment or having to build complicated logic expressions. The gallery may allow users to build a complete solution by adding the predefined controls from the gallery to the design surface of a solution without opening a code editor, and the code behind the control may be automatically built into the solution. The solution code may also be accessible for later modification by a user in the database program.

Abstract: A database server application program is provided that is configured to provide a programmable interface into a database application by way of database services uniform resource locators (URLs). A database services URL utilized by the database application can be updated programmatically by program code executing within or under control of the database server application program. A macro action for use in conjunction with a database server application that provides functionality for displaying a database object, such as a form or report, in-place in a Web browser is also disclosed.

Abstract: An application builder tool creates business applications from user provided business descriptions. The application builder is customized using metadata and the metadata may be extended. The metadata provides a set of business terms to the user and the information required to generate an application from those terms. The user either selects terms from the list or enters new business terms to describe the business problem they want the application to automate. The application builder analyzes the terms the user provides and uses the metadata associated with those terms to select, generate and combine business application components. The result is a functioning business application.

Abstract: A client application provides a user interface for defining a form that includes a navigation control. The navigation control includes two or more selectable tabs that are each associated with a target, such as another form or a report. When one of the selectable tabs on the navigation control is selected using an appropriate user input device, the target associated with the selected tab is displayed in the form. The client application also provides functionality for publishing a form including navigation controls to a server application, thereby making the form and the navigation control accessible through a Web interface.

Abstract: Embodiments are provided for creating and reusing database forms and reports. A selection of an object may be received from a database by a database software application executing on a computer system. The object may include a form or a report. The application may further receive an input to initiate saving the selected object as a new form template or a new report template. In response to receiving the input, the application may be configured to generate a dialog for receiving the selected object and save the selected object as a new form template or a new report template. Any controls, sub-forms, sub-reports, properties, macros, code, and object model references which may be included in the selected object are persisted in the newly created templates for reuse.
