Delphi Database Development

Book excerpt: Since its release in February 1995, Delphi has established itself as both a formidable and popular tool in the Windows development arena. Dozens of books have been written about Delphi. However, none of these contains the comprehensive and complete information found in Delphi Database Development. This book is the result of painstaking research into the inner workings of Delphi's extensive database architecture. It is the only book specifically devoted to providing the complete reference materials required by all Delphi database applications developers. Use of the Borland Database Engine API functions is fully documented, along with some functions and features that have never been documented anywhere before. Clear, understandable Delphi examples are included for each item, with instructions on how to take advantage of Delphi's enormous power. Xbase programmers migrating to Delphi will benefit from the numerous references.
