Just a quick note, you don't need a TDataSet to use sqlite. In fact I avoid TDataSet because I have no need for everything it offers. I just wrote my own code around the sqlite.dll and then wrote a component around that to make it a bit more robust. Basically the same way you'd do it in C. Delphi is a great language to learn if you want to write up some quick apps in windows/linux. If you're looking to distribute source code, then the most universally known language would be C obviously. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
