DataBase Programming in DELPHI

[goodman666]

Hi,
I'm writing a Database program on Delphi 5,...I've successfully added MSAccess / Paradox Datas as needed; Now I want to Create a lookup data I know I can use a DBCommboBox or DBLookupComboBox, but in either case it does not full fill my demands...for example I want to retrieve a data e.g. employee name for creating an Order from, which should be linked with employees data table and after selecting, it should put the employees name to Order table..please help me in this regard...
thanks
Oscar Goodman

It looks like you want to include the name of the employee in your order form. If you want to this via a DBGrid or DBCtrlGrid look up faq102-1213 which deals with this.

Faq102-1212 deals with the normal Data aware look up controls like DBlookupListBox and DBLookComboBox
