I have finally decided to bite the bullet and move an large application from
V2 to V4. (I know, I know!!)

This application has a lot of parameterised queries located in a lot of data
modules.  Is there a fast way to fix up the parameters in the dfms (which
give an error).  If not does anyone have a definition of the params.data
field in the dfm so I can write something to parse it and create the new
params entries.

Heres hoping I wont have to go through and recreate them all by hand!

How many is a lot ?  You can just cut and re-paste the SQL property for each
TDBISAMQuery and it will fix up the parameters for you.

There are about 80 queries in 20 datamodules.  I guess it is going to be
quicker just biting the bullet and doing it by hand .

Ouch, I'm sorry to hear that.  Unfortunately I don't know of any other
quicker way to get them converted.
