Demo project for article
With the introduction of support for ADO Database access, Borland gave us TADOTable, a quick, easy-to-use component to begin the job of outfitting an existing application with a newer database. But TADOTable is no TTable! It comes with some baggage you can do without.

DFM and PAS Files for article
How often have you started a new Delphi project, then spent some time fleshing out the default main form provided by Delphi?
This task only needs to be done once or twice. Delphi then allows us to re-use this work at the start of each new project.
Source code is included.

| Where Does Your Data Belong? |
- |
Back in the wild and wooly days of C/PM, DOS, and early versions of Windows, we programmers could store our data pretty much anywhere. It might not have been a good idea, but we could get away with it.
Things have changed drastically!!
If your program stores data, you need to know where it belongs, and that varies quite a bit from one version of Windows to others.
Read on to find out where your data belongs.

Sometimes old news is good news.
If you still need to work with Visual Studio 2005, you may find yourself annoyed by that list of Recent Projects on your Start Page; a list you can't clean up - unless you want to go poking around in the Windows Registry.
The nifty little utility at this link takes care of the problem in a clean, straightforward, easy-to-use way.

Example of using PSR
In the past it's been a pain to get end-users to give developers an accurate and complete list of the steps they took to get to a problem - especially if screen-shots are desirable.
Now Microsoft has provided a tool that makes the entire process ridiculously easy.
