Thread Master Fields and Master Source properties on DBISAMQuery component
Mon, Sep 18 2006 10:15 AMPermanent Link

"Brent"
Hello,
Will master fields and master source properties on DBISAMQuery component be
possible or considered in a future release? I use both Advantange DB Local
Server and DBISAM. The Advantage SQL component has that option and makes
creating query based master detail relationships a lot easier. Small
applications using DBISAM are easier to deploy than Advantage (no dlls,
etc.) so I would prefer to use DBISAM in some applications if that option is
available.

Thanks,
Brent

You can do so now by using the DataSource property:

It's very simple to do, and is the only way to do master-detail with a query
since a query requires a parameterized SELECT statement with a WHERE clause
to perform the detail side of things, i.e. there are no ranges with queries
like there are with tables.
