Needed: Complete, working Lazarus example for desktop database access in Linux

[dkjMusic]

I would like to find the above, with a sample desktop database file, so I can learn the basics.

I have spent nearly a week searching in vain for such a beast. The examples I have found either don't work or require more than I know about, e.g., connecting to a SQL server database.

I have an MS Access database on my desktop that I want to write some Lazarus code to query. unixODBC was a bust, and I am guessing I can find a way to export the mdb to a CSV file and import it into the db format used by a WORKING example program.

I would really appreciate any help provided.

  Thank you so much. That is exactly what I've been looking for. I started with the Address project, but when I opened address.lpi, I got a message saying: Unable to find the unit of component class "TfrDBDataSET". What should I do?

Never mind. I tracked the component to the LazReport package which I did not have installed. I installed and the address.lpi loaded w/o a hitch. Man, is it difficult to get Lazarus to let go of a buggered project.

Now when I run the project in Lazarus and select File/Exit, the program breaks at the Close statement in TfPim.mmExitClick. How come?

[davesimplewear]

that is the routine to close the program, when you say it breaks there are you debuging?

Yes, I must be. The Lazarus window title had (debugging...) at the end.

I just deleted the routine then typed the code back in and it exited without stopping there. Maybe a breakpoint was in the original?

Thanks for your help.

Thank you for your example code. i really newbie and want to know more about lazarus and firebird.

Thank you.
