Please help PS Sorry on bad English ---------------------------------------------------------------------- felipemdc · 2008-03-27 17:12 It's all explained here: http://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/Lazarus_Database_Tutorial Just don't use the visual components, add the adequate units to your uses clause, create the connect by code and then connect that to a TDataSet and use the methods on TDataSet to manipulate the data. Or you can use the MySQL API directly, that's also a possibility. Search the fpc source code for the mysql headers. It should be in packages/fcl-db probably. Also go to the MySQL website and read the docs of the API.
