This ia small testbed application to help me come up with a good visual
metaphor for showing multiple linked tables in an SQL query builder component
I am working on.  I thought it might be of interest to others, so I have
packaged the relevant files into this ZIP.

Advert: The component this is a part of is a full featured visual SQL query
builder that will return as a propery a validated SQL query built from user
selections from visual panels, similar to the Win95 wizards.  It (currently)
supports the following:

  1. Alias selection, with support for Paradox, Interbase, and dBase formats
  2. Table Selection - multiple tables, no limit
  3. Column sleection from each table, with selection ordering
  4. Multiple table linkages
  5. Result sorting (ORDER BY clause)
  6. Individual column contionals (compare to constants, full boolean operators)
  7. Full support for WHERE clause operators (AND, OR, BETWEEN, NOT, etc.)
  8. GROUP BY clause construction

It is a completely self contained component, no DLL to carry around.
