Hi All,

I am in process of migrating from 2.04 to 2.06, and have left 2 issues,
one with creating a dataset runtime.

Following from 2.04:

   XXdataset:=TDataSet.Create(nil);
   with XXdataset.Columns.Add do
   begin
   Name:='Item';
   DataType:=dtString;
   Length:=25;
   end;
   with XXdataset do begin
   OnRowChanged := XXdatasetRowChanged;
   Open;
   end;

XXdataset:=TDataSet.Create(nil) makes it global, but how can I use it in
the new setup with named database?

I have defined XXDatabase in database unit, but i cannot simply do
XXdataset:=TDataSet.Create(XXDatabase);

and tried other options (create dataset on oncreate event of xxdatabase
etc), i am obviously doing something wrong, but what?

Thanks in advance.

Regards,

Hüseyin

You *must* create each dataset with the owning database passed as the Owner parameter, otherwise the dataset won't be hooked up to the proper database.

Hi Tim,

Thanks for the reply, i have tried following:

XXdataset:=TDataSet.Create(XXDatabase);

XXdataset:=TDataSet.Create('XXDatabase');

XXdataset:=TDataSet.Create(TXXDatabase);

XXdataset:=TDataSet.Create(databaseunit.XXDatabase);

XXdataset:=TDataSet.Create(databaseunit.'XXDatabase');

XXdataset:=TDataSet.Create(databaseunit.'TXXDatabase');

i cannot satisfy the compiler

What's the compiler error message ?  It should *tell* you exactly what the issue is.

Tim,

This seems to be working now also, strange because i think i've tried
following before and without success but now it compiles and run fine:

xxruntime :=TDataSet.Create(myDatabase);

myDatabase are defined as TDatabase within database unit. I must have
missed something before or added something while troubleshooting which
makes it work now.
