hI ALL-

I went into the menu systems for data controls and none show up..
Tools -> Options -> component palette.

Any way that I can regenerate that missing page in the component
palette?

Lazarus 2.0.10
FPC 3.2.0
Fedora 32 (installed with package manager)

thanks :-)

Hi all-

I tried to reinstall fpc and lazarus from the package manager. I did a
build many and chose the option build and clean all.

At this point, I am wondering if the version for download in fedora
package manager is missing something.

I saw when I peaked at releasever=33 in my package manager that they
have 2.0.12 instead of 2.0.10, but I am not ready to do the rolling
install just yet.

thanks.

HI all-

I fixed it. It was weird!

My database control page was empty.

I clicked on a tdbgrid I had on a form from before. Then they showed
up under All catgory in the component palette.

So I dragged them out of all one at a time over to the data control
page of the palette until it filled up.

Problem solved.

thanks :-)
