CHAPTER 14:
Making Forms Work - a Primer
In just about every Delphi application, we use forms to present and retrieve information from users. Delphi arms us with a rich array of visual tools for creating forms and determining their properties and behavior. We can set them up at design time using the property editors and we can write code to re-set them dynamically at runtime.
Discuss about questions, comments, problems and solutions related to this chapter!
CHAPTER 15:
Communicating Between Forms
In "Making Forms Work - a Primer" we looked at simple SDI forms and considered some good reasons for not letting your program auto-create forms. This chapter builds on that to demonstrate techniques available when closing modal forms and how one form can retrieve user input or other data from a secondary form.
Discuss about questions, comments, problems and solutions related to this chapter!
CHAPTER 16:

Delphi Personal edition does not offer database support. In this chapter, you will find out how to create your own *flat* database and store any kind of data - all without a single data aware component.
Discuss about questions, comments, problems and solutions related to this chapter!
CHAPTER 17:
Working with units
While developing a (large) Delphi application, as program becomes more complex, its source code can become very hard to maintain. In this article you will learn about creating your own code modues - Delphi code files that contain logically associated functions and procedures. Along the process we'll briefly discuss using Delphi's built-in routines and how to make all the units of a Delphi application cooperate.
Discuss about questions, comments, problems and solutions related to this chapter!
