Re: More VCL and OWL :-)



You can use TTable component in OWL program like this:

TTable* tbMy = new TTable(::Application);
tbMy->DatabaseName = "MyDatabaseName";
tbMy->TableName      = "MyTableName";
tbMy->Active = true;
// Then do something like:
long nRec = tbMy->RecordCount;
// Then close table and delete it
tbMy->Active=false;
delete tbMy;

OWL's TPointer is convenient for handling VCL "new-created" objects.

You can also use AnsiString, TDatabase, everything that
can be constructed with parent ::Application.

As far as I remember from reading some Borland paper:
"It's easy to import TForm in your OWL program. Importing components
would have been (zic!) more dificult".
