Hi, Zulander!

Please don't cross post as it is against the newsgroup guidelines at
www.borland.com/newsgroups

To make the connection at design time, just click on the
ConnectionString property of the TADOQuery or TADOTable object.

To make it at run time, PromptDataSource is the function you need. Have
a look in adodb.pas

                            function PromptDataSource(ParentHandle:
THandle; InitialString:
                            WideString): WideString;

is the signature; the parent handle is the handle of the window that the
dialog should use as the parent - the Application or main form are fine
for this.

I hope this helps.
