Thanks for that code, but how do I get the HWND, when I create the Word App
by
WordApp := CreateOLEObject('Word.Application');

This is kinda undocumented, so I'm not sure if this will continue to work. I
don't have the TChart source either, but I found this using the object
browser.
Use TeePrevi.ChartPreview(OwnerForm,Chart);
and include TeePrevi in the uses clause. This is in D5, btw.

Hello everyone,
What is the best way to copy data from one database to another database
using ADO?
Database backend could be Interbase, MS SQL 7.0 or Oracle.
I use the following code from book Mastering Delphi 5 P572 from Marco Cantu.
procedure TForm1.Button1Click(Sender: TObject);
var
I:
Leigh
Q
1/ Is this a one off or a synch process
2/ Do you want it to be generic i.e from any of (Interbase, MS SQL 7.0,
Oracle) to any of (Interbase, MS SQL 7.0, Oracle)
3/ Are you over-writing or appending

Dear Neven,

One off process
2/ Do you want it to be generic i.e from any of (Interbase, MS SQL 7.0,

Currently Source Interbase, Destination any of (Interbase, MS SQL 7.0,
Oracle)

Leigh
OK then for a One Off I'd not even attempt to do it programmatically
For MS SQL the process would be as follows
1/ Create tables in target db with limited constraint (no RI self ref or
other)
2/ Use dts to tx data in
3/ script fix ups
4/ establish constraints
The only process you could
Why don't you use Interbase 6 (Embedd it in the product), then can use
either IBX, IBO, FreeIBPlus to access it.

Dear Neven,
Thank you for your reply.

I am sorry that I have not made it clear. One off means that user do copy
procedure, not developer, and this application is a product offer to our
customers.
By the way, I tried dts,
Donovan,
have you considered interbase? (what did anyone else expect me to say!?)
It fits almost all of the criteria:
- Extremely hostile and remote. ie. Applications are running on machines
that are very difficult to access either physically or with remote access.
fine.

Thanks Chen, how long has the Activate procedure been in Word, 95, 97 or 2000?

I have to say that this kind of local function require special stack setup
for call which can not be optimized by Delphi compiler.
I thought that it would be good just declare it as private function, and
pass parameters around.

Definately works. Always has in Pascal, thats one of the points (scope).

Blobs are going to be a problem and so is RI (esp self referencing)
If you use ADO you can still use the logic I outlined
1/ Drop Target tables if they exist*
2/ Create Target Tables without RI, PK, Triggers or Indexes*
3/ Use ADO (Cantu type algorithm) to copy in data
4/ Create PK's,
Mark
As an aside There was something on delphi direct about passing strings as
Const
it being far more efficient. But as a matter of style I use local funcs and
procs to
stop the main routine suffering indentititus can't be that ineff to call
(esp with no param) can it?
Wouldn't be surprised if
Dear Neven,
Thanks. I will try it.
Best Regards

Yes, and from what I have seend and used of this product, it is excellent.
There you have it - no installation hassles, robust, easily program

We are now using the MIDAS 3 (TclientDataSet) stuff heavily inplace of
cached updates etc.
It gives us master detail (N levels) etc without a line of code having to be
written (Okay so we have a DB aware form that provides the additional
required support -works well).

You can use RTTI to do the mapping, there was on DSP/torries some examples
of this (Spider classes??)

No, but using TTable (or similar) or a lot of master-detail queries makes
performance suck, and as most people tend to use them.

Fair call tho - but it is friday avo. Wh! The Weekend Has Landed!

I'm following this "data-aware awareness" thread with

What's the "restriction" issue here - cutting
down the number of rows, or limiting the number
of columns? Rows, right?
But if
But if you're presenting data in a scrolling grid
doesn't your underlying query result have to

first rule of C/S: dont use tables.
second rule: dont use grids. They are an exceptionally bad UI component with
anything but paradox-type things. throw MIDAS in there and it
