It turned out that for some reason restarting the IDE fixed the problem. The data now populates happily.<br><br><div class="gmail_quote">2010/1/5 Michael Van Canneyt <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:michael@freepascal.org">michael@freepascal.org</a>></span><br>

Can you post the files somewhere ? It should work; it sure does here.<br>
<br>
BTW. You can set the 'Active' property to true even in the designer,<br>
it should show the data in the grid as well.<br><font color="#888888">

So I found this helpful wiki page<br>
<blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">
<a href="http://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/SQLdb_Package" target="_blank">http://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/SQLdb_Package</a> for getting started with<br>
the db components. Great! I (believe) I've followed the tutorial exactly,<br>
everything's working until I try to drop a tdbgrid with my datasource onto<br>
the form. No data is shown. I double check my sql query, "select * from<br>
actions", I click the run button and the data shows, so I was confused as to<br>
why it wouldn't show in the grid. I compiled the program anyway, thinking<br>
maybe the IDE's auto query executor was broken, but no luck. Still<br>
completely blank. I've tried the same thing with a dblistbox as well.<br>

Uhm , is your DbGrid/dblistbox linked to a datasource , and the datasource<br>
to your Query ?<br>
