Hi,

Is it possible to be able to create databases, tables and fields in EDB using just EWB?

Thanks

Yup. Absolutely. You can do everything from defining tables to creating and modifying them. Checkout the manual,for full details. It's very comprehensive.

How should that work? Do you mean by using modules?

Yes. That's how I would do it. And call them from EWB. Although, to be fair, I guess that you need Delphi (at the moment) to create the modules. I believe this may all change in 2.07.

Yes, I guess I should have added:

Creating EDB-databases and/or -tables at runtime from EWB is not
possible without using modules.

Worth saying that this is primarily about security - EWB is designed to ensure that you can't hack the database from remote clients. With due consideration, you could do custom actions in modules. If you need it done, I expect someone here would do a module for a suitable fee.
