In fact it is the same as with database. Every TList hold a pointer to a record, every record that needs a reference to another object need a field containing that reference. For reference you can make small TAutoInc class to give each record an exclusive ID. For saving you save every list in a separate file (euh not the list, but all the records of that list). On loading you construct them again. For saving you can use File of TTheItems where TTheItems is the TRecord type of that individual list. --- Rgds, Wilfried http://www.mestdagh.biz _______________________________________________ Delphi mailing list -> [email protected] http://www.elists.org/mailman/listinfo/delphi
