Thank you very much to all that made suggestions. I have tested DBISAM for Delphi4 and am quite happy with it so far. I will continue to experiment but at present it looks quick enough and stable enough to handle what we need. -- Aaron Scott-Boddendijk +64 7 838 3371 VOICE +64 7 838 3372 FAX e-

Aaron Just a note on the kbmMemTable list they did a comp of DBISAM and kbmMemTable the outcome was that DBISAM had a much higher instance memory usage (something to watch for if you are doing a large number of tables) Neven - Original Message - From: Delphi <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Mul

I think that was comparing DBISAM tables used as memory tables vs kbmMemTable. In this case, DBISAM could be much better since it would be reading from disk instead of having everything in memory. At 11:32 28/06/2001 +1200, you wrote: >Aaron > >Just a note on the kbmMemTable list they did a com

If you ignore the case statements you are calling begin, without an end. if InputIsCDG then begin ... else ... end; What you need is either: if InputIsCDG then ... else ... or if InputIsCDG then begin ... end else ... end; Stacey ---

Hi Ross, Well, with my limited knowledge of Pascal, I believe that you're gonna need to remove that 'begin' and also remove the ';', cos you don't have them before an else, from memory. Ross Levis wrote: > > Thanks all for the TimeSeparater help. OnCreateForm will do the trick. > > I have an

You missed the end cause for the first begin. eg if InputIsCDG then begin case WriteRadioGroup.itemindex of 0: BINbuffer := EmptyWAV; 1: BINbuffer := CDGbuffer; 2: BINbuffer := EmptyWAV+CDGbuffer; end; end else begin case WriteRadioGroup.itemindex of

Hi Ross, The problem is that you started the 'if' with 'begin' so the compiler expects an 'end' which you don't have! The code should be: if InputIsCDG then begin case WriteRadioGroup.itemindex of 0: BINbuffer := EmptyWAV; 1: BINbuffer := C
