Quick Data Base - QDB v.2.10
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
VCL Components for Delphi 1, 2 & 3
by
Robert R. Marsh, S.J.
1/7/98
Overview
~~~~~~~~
The zip file containing the file you are reading (archive.zip) holds a
demonstration of QDB in action - a simple knowledge-base in which you can
store, access, and retrieve copies of text files. It comes with a sample
database (archive.qdb) containing a selection of Borland's technical
information files for Delphi.
This demo shows the QDB components' ability to store streams extremely
easily and then load them into a visual component. Since the archive demo
uses a TRichEdit component it will only compile under D2 or D3.
You are free to use and modify this demonstration application as you wish
but you may make no profit from its sale unless you have modified it
extensively (say, more than 50% new code). If you do improve its
functionality I'd like you to send me a copy.
Files
~~~~~
The zip file archive.zip contains the following files
archive.qdb the TI kb
arc_main.dfm the main form
arc_main.pas the main unit
archive.dpr the project file
read_me.txt this file
Installation
~~~~~~~~~~~~
Unzip the demo wherever you like. The QDB components should be installed
before you try to compile the demo. The files for the demo should all be
in one directory.
Distribution
~~~~~~~~~~~~
QDB was written for fun as well as utility so I am glad to make these VCL
components available free of charge. It should be understood that,
although I have attempted to test them thoroughly, they may cause some
damage - directly or indirectly - for which I can take no responsibility.
Use these components with pleasure but use them at your own risk.
If you like them, have anything to say about them, or just want to make
contact you can find me at:
rrm@sprynet.com
The latest versions of QDB, etc., can be found at my web site:
