Actually, I asked more than once (trying to phrase it differently each time)
"Where does the call to ApplyUpdates need to be?" and got similar
non-answers each time. But life goes on, and the PostgreSQL components
appear to do mostly what I had in mind.

If I should ever find time, I might look into why the MySQL components
didn't. However, time is at a premium these days, and probably always will
be. Once I finish this little side project, I will probably lose all
interest in Lazarus/FPC/PostgreSQL/MySQL anyway, and concentrate on my day
job as a high-performance graphics tools programmer using C++. The only
reason I was ever interested in Lazarus is because Delphi was the fastest,
easiest way I knew of to slap a GUI onto a trivial DB program (and the
program I was trying to write should have been REALLY trivial), and I didn't
have access to a copy of Delphi (too expensive for a one-off side project,
anyway).
