Expanded version of Address Book
lazarus / 16-Databases

----------------------------------------------------------------------

I have put together a version of Address Book that is supplied as an
example app with Lazarus. It makes use of the TDbf component and
 LazReport. It didn't take me too long to do and illustrates what can
be achieved without too much effort.

Versions are available for Windows and Linux.

You can grab these from my web site,  http://www.wibblytim.co.uk .

I hope you will look at them kindly!!

Cheers,  Tim.

I would like to put them on the lazarus-ccr sourceforge site as
examples. It looks very useful.

Can you create a wiki page about it with the content of
http://www.wibblytim.co.uk/contact.html on the lazarus wiki?

Further I suggest, that you clean up the source download a bit. You
don't loose anything, if you remove the *.bak, *.o, *.ppu, *.a files
and the backup directory. It would be nice if the same source archive
could be used to compile on windows and linux, and I am not sure if
that is the case.

Thanks.

Vincent,

I'm glad you approve of my efforts, I will look at creating a wiki
page over the weekend.

Your suggestion about cleaning up the source download is very
sensible, I was just being lazy!

I tried to get the source archives to compile on both windows and
Linux but there are differences in screen layout and in printer layout
between windows and linux. The differences are fairly minor on screen
but larger when you use the printer.

I have installed the pdfprinter component package with a view to
giving a user even more choice, hopefully this will enable me to
improve the app a bit more.  I'll see.

Kind Regards,

Tim.

I have put together a wiki page for Contacts Database, it includes a
link to the page on my website where you can download the packages.

Kind Regards,

Tim

I saw it. Shall I put it on the Lazarus-CCR download pages too?

Is this version 1.0?

Will you clean up the source archive? Otherwise I will do it, prior to
uploading.

Vincent,

Yes please do put it on the Lazarus-CCR download pages.

It is version 1.0.

I have already cleaned up the source archive, but please look at it
again. I will admit to not being perfect!!

Kind Regards,

Tim.

The files are now at https://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?gro
up_id=92177&package_id=148359&release_id=436502

As you see, the source archives is less than 20 kB now (I hope I did
not remove too much and things still compile).
