<div class="descr"> <a name="details"></a>
<p>Using the SQL models described above, the contents of a database can be presented to other model/view components. For some applications, it is sufficient to present this data using a standard item view, such as <a href="qtableview.html">QTableView</a>. However, users of record-based applications often require a form-based user interface in which data from a specific row or column in a database table is used to populate editor widgets on a form.</p>
<p>Such data-aware forms can be created with the <a href="qdatawidgetmapper.html">QDataWidgetMapper</a> class, a generic model/view component that is used to map data from a model to specific widgets in a user interface.</p>
<p><a href="qdatawidgetmapper.html">QDataWidgetMapper</a> operates on a specific database table, mapping items in the table on a row-by-row or column-by-column basis. As a result, using <a href="qdatawidgetmapper.html">QDataWidgetMapper</a> with a SQL model is as simple as using it with any other table model.</p>
<p class="centerAlign"><img src="images/qdatawidgetmapper-simple.png" alt="" /></p><p>The <a href="demos-books.html">Books</a> demonstration shows how information can be presented for easy access by using <a href="qdatawidgetmapper.html">QDataWidgetMapper</a> and a set of simple input widgets.</p>
