I have few questions about the Data Export components, (e.g. TCSVExporter). I create a database at runtime, then I create queries and I would like to save the resulting datasets. Is it possible to save the datasets using as field headers something different than the field names? Have I to use the ExportedName property? How can I set it during runtime?

Yes, ExportedName is what should be used.

You should populate the ExportFields collection, and set the ExportedName
property of each item.


I will try it.
Is it possible to define a mask to save float fields? e.g If I would like to save a float number with only two decimal digits, how can I do that?

I would think that the displaymask of the field component can be used to do
so ?


Do you mean the DisplayFormat of the field? If so, it does not work. If I set the DisplayFormat of the fields, the fields are shown correctly on a dbgrid but when I save them using TCSVExporter they are saved without formatting.
