For Postgres there is a dedicated database component, SQLServer has been reported to work with tmseodbcconnection. If there is enough interrest and no license problems development of a SQLServer connection component is possible. > 2- What the Report designer is more like with ReportBuilder? MSEgui has an own report engine with a designer in MSEide. > 4- The Lazarus IDE is the most used, but MSEide is relevant too? Why? MSEgui and fpGUI have another approach, they use an own widgetset programmed in Pascal which does not use external widget libraries. Lazarus links to the native widgetset of the operating system or to another external widget library. MSEide is a RAD tool in order to build MSEgui applications and other Pascal and gcc programs. > 6- What FPC/Lazarus provides to DataSets in memory like TClientDataSet > in Delphi? MSEgui has tlocaldataset, tmsesqlquery has a disconnected from server mode. tmsebufdataset is the base component, it can maintain a journal for local modifications which are sent to the server later. > 6.1- And about multi-tier applications, what they provides? MSEgui has the experimental MSEifi environment in order to link MSEgui components by communication channels.
