The following works in Database Desktop (v7.0) -
haven't verified how it goes in Delphi.
Table has Amount and ExpType (among other things)
in an Expenses table. The following SQL provides total expenses by type and as
percentage of total and has a grand total at the end.

I know this comment is way of the mark in helping you out for
this situation,but this sort of problem is why I ditched Quick Reports quite
some time ago and switched to using FastReport.
Grouping is where it really stands out..sub-totals are no
problem at all - even as percentages. Its a
We have just handled a similar problem here, and here is what we did.
Perform your original SQL and put it onto a temporary table (T1).
Write another SQL which which sums, totals, counts whatever you
want from T1 at whatever grouping level you want and puts it into
a new temporary (T2).

You said it! - but that was what he asked for. Definitely not suitable for
large amounts of text or where clear text is guessable but certainly enough to
put someone off when only a small text is available. I use SHA1 , MD5,
Yeah I think we might do that.

Here's something simple - you enter any string as your input string and it
always gives you a six digit number as the return variable. I don't know
how easy it would be to break. A colleague and I put it together a couple
of years ago.
It is only one way...

fine, but a cryptographer work his salt should be able to go thru this in
about 2 secon
You cannot overload a function based on the function result alone. This
because the compiler allows you to call the function without having to
assign the result to a variable. Even if it forces you to do so, allowing
overloading on function result is difficult at best, eg. if you have one

Hi Phil
This looks useful. Can I assume it decrypts as well by passing the Encrypt
param as False?
Cheers,

Hi again. I also forgot to mention 2 other things. (1). depending on the
charactor you are trying to display, i.e if its chinese you will have to
set the default charset in the fonts property of the label, AND (2) the
other thing is too, that the caption property for the TLabel control is a

What about using an image?
Then you don't have to rely on the font being there.

HI. Change the font of your label to "Lucida unicode" or "Arial MS
Unicode"
I have had a lot to do with this problem, and thats teh solution.
I needed a Unicode Listview and had to write my own from scratch.
try that and see how it goes.

Thankfully,
The method overloading in D6 is much better (eg Strings and WideString
method overloads now work). I think the function result is still not checked
in D6.

Thanks for your help. I decided that if I needed to modify my label
component just for one character I would be better looking at alternatives.
I found the same symbol in standard wingdings3 so Ive used that in another
label beside the existing one. Not elegant but much less effort / time
reqd.
It depends on what OS you are using. I think that NT4 and Win2k by default
support it but earlier versions of windows have to be configured/updated to
support it.

Hi Ross,
The following code is a simple routine to encrypt and decrypt strings.
Simplicity at it's best! (?)
Cheers,
John.
function EnDecrypt(s : string) : string;
{Function:
Encrypt / Decrypt given string.
Entry parameters:
s = string to en/decrypt.
Return value:
En/Decrypted
One of the strongest and simplest cyphers you can use is RC4 or "ARC-4". It
can be implemented in just a few dozen of lines in any programming language
or you just find a component to do it.

See Peter's post - its a 1 way hash, very useful for password (ie, you
encrypt it, and compare only the encrypted states). I think its part of the
Indy component set, from memory, but I'm not sure. Its "standard", and
implemented in lots of languages - Delphi and Java for sure

Well I was thinking 2-way but I should be able to use 1-way. What or where

Standard Delphi 4 (i think 5 as well) don't support unicodes. If you want
to dispaly unicode you have to create ur own TLabel component by overriding:
procedure DoDrawText(var Rect: TRect; Flags: Longint); override;
Then on the implementation you should do the following:
procedure ...DoDrawTex
Is your computer setup to display unicode?
Just a quick random thought.

Does it need to be 2 way, or 1 way? MD5 is very good for one-way.
