about accessing databases, there is a tutorial:
http://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/Lazarus_Database_Tutorial
which is only a very brief introduction, but it's much better than nothing.
After going through it a few times, after going through the forums
many times, and after stumbling upon even more "access violation"
errors, I managed to working with sqlite and mysql...at least for
simple queries.
In my project I went on with sqlite only, but the dataset interfaces
are basically always the same; this is a very active list and if you
ask, you'll probably get an answer.
