Yep, and submitted a bug report to Borland - and got a reply from a support
engineer in a about a week using their DBDemos database to reproduce the
problem and 2 lines of code - have submitted some stuff and had replies 6
months later.

Have you raised these issues in the midas newsgroup?
John K is very defensive about the ClientDataset stuff and will
generally reply promptly to questions.  Although at the moment
he is pretty busy with the Kylix thing, he is still on the newsgroups
often

1. FetchOnDemand not fully implemented - actually reads through all data in
nested datasets and only sends to the client the requested detail dataset -
very inefficient  - fatally so - we could deal with this - wrote our own
provider which fixes these issues.

2. We are using nested datasets for master/detail on the client side. The
MIDAS.DLL fails to update the ChangeCount and propagate the change count to
the master datasets, hence you cannot do ApplyChanges as the changeCount on
the master dataset is zero.

3. After a post of a detail dataset when the detail dataset is empty, it
loses the record (it disappears), if you refresh/navigate etc, it reappears
later, it however you add 2 or three records it appears to be quite happy.

4. Because of 2 & 3 it gives Key Violation exceptions, as it appears to
lose
the data just keyed. These all seems to be related to the ChangeCount not
incrementing and failure to post records.

Can't do anything about 2,3,4 as they are all problems with midas.dll
<grrrrrrrrrrrr .... ^#%^%$#>

Midas.dll works fine on single level datasets.
