Looking for good Delphi/ADO examples

Hi,

I'm looking for some examples on using ADO in Delphi.

Any good sites on the WWW?

You can try TaoADODataSet from http://www.alohaoi.com.  The component is
wrapper around ADO.  The download package has all the source code and a
sample program.

You might try http://www.{*word*104}magic.co.nz/winsoft/adofaq.htm

It's for Adonis, which is an ADO replacement, but it gives some good
examples.

Jeffrey,

The ADO Express that you can get with Delphi 5 is pretty decent.  I
haven't found any problems with it so far, and you can use it with
your standard database components.  It was $200, but worth every
penny.

If you want to dive into the innards of ADO, you can always import the
type library and do it that way.  It's interesting, and free, but I'd
rather not mess with it.  The Delphi components work just fine.  I've
also used the Diamond ADO components for Delphi 4 - we had a few
problems but in all they worked pretty decent.

If you want a good primer on ADO, you can check out the Wrox books,
like ADO 2.1 Programmer's Reference (2.5 may be out now).  The
examples are set up more for VB, but it will give you a good idea of
how ADO and OLEDB are used, and the code is pretty easy to convert to
Delphi.  There's also the Microsoft site (www.microsoft.com/ado) but
it's a bit cryptic and doesn't do as good of a job explaining it as
the Wrox books do.

Let me know if you want some examples using the Delphi ADO Express
components, or anything else ADO-related. There was, at one time, an
article on Delphi Direct about how to import the ADO type library and
go at it that way.

Have fun -

The borland community page had some examples which I used to test ADO with
Excel and Access
