How to install the TQueryDialog Component

Run the EZQuery.exe file to extract the files to the EZQuery directory.  Run the EZInstall.exe
program.  Check if the C++ Builder path is correct, if not change it to the correct path.
Select the Install button to copy the TQueryDialog files to the proper C++ Builder 
directories. Once the copy is complete follow the instructions below for you version of 
C++ Builder to install the component.

You may also install the component from the current directory, but you must include the
path in all your projects as well as add it to the sample programs.  It is easier to use
the Install/Uninstall program. It will also setup the help files.

There are two sample programs to study. One uses a MIDI form the other a normal form.
Open the sample programs in C++ Builder to compile and run.  Note: The sample programs
use the BCBDEMO BDE alias.
 
In C++ Builder 1
Once you run the EZInstall program, go into C++ Builder and select Component:Install from 
the menu and select the Add button.  Select the file QueryDialog.obj which will be located
in the C++ Builder lib\obj directory. If you purchased the source, you may also install 
this conponent from the source directory using the QueryDialog.cpp file.  Select the file 
by either double clicking or pressing the Open button. Press the OK button to rebuild the
component library. Once the library is rebuild, the component will be added to the Data Controls
tab. Caution: You should always make a backup of your component library before installing 
any component. 

Remember if you do not use the EZInstall program, each project you create with this control,
you will need to update the include and library path within the project options to include 
the location of the files you installed.  

 
In C++ Builder 3
Once you run the EZInstall program, go into C++ Builder and select 
Component:Install Packages from the menu and select the Add button.  Select the file 
QPackB30.bpl that is located in the C++ Builder Lib directory. If you purchased the 
source, you may also build this package from the source directory and then install it.  
The package file can be found in the \EZQuery\CBuilder 3.0\Source directory.  If you use 
the files in the source directory, you must first build the package located in that 
directory.  Then select the file by either double clicking or pressing the Open button.  

Remember, if you did not use the EZInstall program, for each project you create with 
this control, you will need to update the include and library path within the project 
options to include the location of the package you installed.  Also you will need to include 
the bpl files in the current Windows path.  You can do this by changing the path in AUTOEXEC.BAT 
or by copying the bpl files into the \Windows\System directory or anywhere else that is 
already in the path.

If the help for the component does not function under C++ Builder 3.0, use Help:Customize
menu option to add the QueryDialog.hlp file under the Index and Link sections of the 
OpenHelp program.  


In C++ Builder 4
Once you run the EZInstall program, go into C++ Builder and select 
Component:Install Packages from the menu and select the Add button.  Select the file 
QPackB40.bpl that is located in the C++ Builder projects\bpl directory. If you purchased the 
source, you may also build this package from the source directory and then install it.  
The package file can be found in the \EZQuery\CBuilder 4.0\Source directory.  If you use 
the files in the source directory, you must first build the package located in that 
directory.  Then select the file by either double clicking or pressing the Open button.  

Remember, if you did not use the EZInstall program, for each project you create with 
this control, you will need to update the include and library path within the project 
options to include the location of the package you installed.  Also you will need to include 
the bpl files in the current Windows path.  You can do this by changing the path in AUTOEXEC.BAT 
or by copying the bpl files into the \Windows\System directory or anywhere else that is 
already in the path.  

Refer to the How to Use section of the help file for information on how to use 
the component.

The price for EZQuery is $49 US or $99 US with source.

Note: This component was developed using C++Builder so the source is C++.

To order EZQuery online go to www.shareit.com and search for EZQuery. EZQuery can be
sent to you via either e-mail or regular mail.

Versions for Delphi 3 and Delphi 4 are currently being developed.
