I too Kyley, would really like to know what 3rd party tools you
use/recommend. Also when I read about the "code generator" that you
developed; my immediate thought was I wonder if he'd be willing to teach
me/others how to that for ourselves. 

I'm trying my darnest to arrive at a decision that will give me the best
tools that enables me to meet the current Win32 needs of my only customer as
well as be in a position to add web functionality. I have to bear all the
expenses. The work isn't full time and the pay is not much more that I could
make by being a greeter at WalMart.

Thanks,

Charlie

 

Hi Kyley

I'd be interested in the 3rd party tools you're using.
I upgraded from Delphi 5 to D2007 mainly to get database connectivity, to
MySQL and SQL Server, and to progress on from the BDE / Paradox databases
I've been using. 

(Which, by the way, in the small apps I've been creating , have worked very
well for some 10 years.)

I still haven't 'got it' (D2007) under production.

Being much of a 'novice' for some 15 years, the upgrade of components
between Delphi 5 and D2007 is a steep learning curve.
I'm watching the '18month upgrade cycle' and cannot necessarily justify it
version by version.. not to mention the cost of redistributing the software
with each compiler/ IDE upgrade. 

I like to keep all my systems under one version..

Regards
Ian Drower

Rodney, I only ever use Pro Version. I use a reliable 3rd part tool for all
my native database connectivity. so no issues there..

I think you need a US credit card to purchase from the US web site.
