Hi everybody,

first of all: Thanks for this great community. It really is nice to
see Pascal not dying after all.

Now to my actual problem.

Coming from TurboPascal without object-oriented programming I started
after years of not coding and took lazarus. It is a great IDE.
In the old times it was easy setting up Data to be written to a file.
Now I would like to use an SQL Server AND get used to object oriented
programming.

I would like to know, if anyone here can give me a link or a book
suggestion so that I can get into writing database software it would
be great.
I would be really happy.

I can already connect to the database and read the contents, but I
would also like to store new or update old information.

Thanks in advance.

Maverick

Perhaps this would be more appropriate:
http://wiki.lazarus.freepascal.org/Lazarus_Database_Tutorial

For Object Pascal Tutorial, search for any Delphi books. Most of them
(at least until Delphi 7) applies to Object Pascal supported by FPC.

Thanks you all.
Those links are just what I was looking for.

Now I can read into the material and get back to programming.

Thanks alot.

Maverick.
