Bohlender Guest Posted: Thu Mar 08, 2007 8:31 am    Post subject: Simple database program using ADO I'm looking for ways of using C++ and the VCL tools to make a very simple Database Program for shall we say Telephone numbers, Addresses and First Name, Initial and Lastname. There must be a simple way to use VCL for this or is it just as simple to use straight C++ and could anyone send me a simple program or where to find such. PLEASE.

I have your book on my desk top right now, thanks.

Just how to find this work of yours, please. Verne I posted one for you in the Borland.public.attachments newsgroup DC in the borland.public.attachments newsgroup from 02MAR07. Look for "Using ADO in BCB", the attachment is everything in a sub directory for a project to read/write etc an Access database (including an mdb file) that I put together using BCB5. I believe you might need the Borland Database Engine. If you are using a different version, you should start a new project, remove the Form1 and then add the form in my project. This project using a TDatabase to connect to the mdb. A TTable to access the data. A TDataSource to connect to data to a TDataGrid for display and editing. This app is VERY basic, but it is functional. Not sure that I can give any more help. DC Back to top Verne H.

How to find attachments for Borland and 2. After a bit more work, possibly tonight I'll try to get the little program to work so I can understand it. Thanks again.

It just wouldn't let me load the .bpr file or what ever into the work I was trying to do. So I'm back where I started. Guess I'llhave to go back to either Visual Basic or their new 2005 to see if I can learn. Trouble I found so far is that most of these are not good if you happen to back to older Windows and with the way Mickey Mouse is screwing up things we may just have to. Wonder if they'll work under Linux too? The Biggies lied to us so much about XP and now this Lista Vista thing is one I sure don't want and what I've seen so far confirms it as they've torn appart all that we new or had learned up until now.

The attachment if it shows will perhaps tell the story I hope. Verne On Tue, 20 Mar 2007 20:00:00 -0500, DreamChaser <NO-Spam@No-Span.net> wrote: Quote: Vladimir Stefanovic wrote: No dice.

However I can at least look at it and just maybe figure what's cooking. I'd hoped we could use the Text boxes or labels for such as with VB but of course that's asking a bit much I guess. Thanks for the effort so far and I'll post my progress if I get farther on with same. Verne On Tue, 27 Mar 2007 22:44:34 -0500, DreamChaser <NO-Spam@No-Span.net> wrote: Quote: Verne H.

The standard BCB controls do not attach to a db like VB ones do. BCB uses the DBText, DBLabel, etc jk Verne H.
