Remarks

A TcxDBMRUEdit control allows the editing of the contents of a text dataset field. This control represents a text editor that stores the most recently inputted strings in the associated dropdown list. The most recently accessed are placed at the top of the list. When a new string is added, it is placed at the top of the list. When an existing item is accessed, it is shifted to the first position.
