How to Setup DBISAM

rbuser

We have had to reinstall Report Builder and I need instructions on how to
setup DBISAM within REport Builder ... it seems that we had to compile
something within the Demos but cannot remember ... thanks, LL

Everything is located in RBuilder\Demos\EndUserDatabases\DBISAM\Native\ The
first part is to test support of the daDBISAM.pas file. Use this unit in
your project so that it gets linked in. Then make sure at runtime you can
set the Designer.Datasettings to DBISAMSession. You'll have to set
Designer.AllowDataSettingsChange = true when you compile to be able to set
this from the File menu in the Data tab of the designer at runtime.

There is also a Delphi design time package you can compile and install so
that you can use DADE for DBISAM at design time. This package is called
rbISAM7x.dpk
