</div>My question was why a database component that ships with *lazarus*<br>
would not work with a perfectly legitimate SQL command (which we have<br>
used for years in Delphi with ADO).<br>
<br>
I assumed at first that I was doing something illegal or so for<br>
lazarus/fpc so I asked here. Did not think it would be off-topic.<br>
<br>
Is there a list of acceptable topics somewhere so one could check<br>
before posting?<br>
<div class="im"><br></div></blockquote><div><br>To get back on topic:<br><br>Quite a number of Lazarus components are not designed as a toolkit to serve a wide range of programmer needs. It is clear that a number of them are developed for the programmers own needs. Even if they are capable enough to serve your needs, those features may not be well documented.<br>
<br>They turn out to be 'useful enough' for many others and are included in the Lazarus package.<br><br>If sqldb cannot serve your needs, or that aspect is not well documented or lacks examples, try zeoslib. I have used zeoslib, which has been around for a long time, and I suspect it will be capable of what you want.<br>
<br>PS. You can also check the forum for more sqldb examples.<br><br><br></div><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin: 0pt 0pt 0pt 0.8ex; border-left: 1px solid rgb(204, 204, 204); padding-left: 1ex;"><div class="im">
