The TDataset, TDatabase and TTransaction components can't show a
messagedialog, since they are part of the FCL.
So I can suppress the exception. But then you'll never know why it's
impossible to set the active property to true, when you are in design
time.
Maybe that you can change it on the lazarus side: in the except-block,
take care of the EDatabaseError exceptions. (ie: show the message, and
don't reraise it)
