Hi!. I tried Lazarus. It is evolving as a nice product. But I miss MDI
windows. Is there any roadmap to cover that area ???

Also how do I link a query on a form with database object residing in
a data module during design time ???


Warm regards

About MDI, there are 2 components that implement it:

At the moment you cannot. All connections have to be made at run time.
 You can only connect DB objects with DB-Aware components if they are
on the same form.

It will never get any better than simulation. Search for MDI on this
forum for the reason.
