I just found an article on the DelphiMag site about the new "easy to use"
RTTI functions available in Delphi 5 that might be of interest to you...if
you are or plan to use Delphi 5.
Have a look at this link for the article.
http://www.delphimag.com/features/1999/11/di199911bt_f/di199911bt_f.asp
The DelphiMag (www.delphimag.com) site is pretty good. Quite a few good
articles there, that come from the Delphi Informant magazine.
Cheers
Scott.
