You have to use 'PromptDataSource' function. Try with something
like the following code:

//---------------------------------------------------------------------------
class TfrmConfigGen : public TForm
{
__published:	// IDE-managed Components
.........
    TEdit *edtConnectionString;
.........
    void __fastcall btnConnectionStringClick(TObject *Sender);
private:	// User declarations
public:		// User declarations
    __fastcall TfrmConfigGen(TComponent* Owner);
};
//---------------------------------------------------------------------------
extern PACKAGE TfrmConfigGen *frmConfigGen;
//---------------------------------------------------------------------------

.....
.....

#include <AdoDB.hpp>

//---------------------------------------------------------------------------
void __fastcall TfrmConfigGen::btnConnectionStringClick(TObject *Sender)
{
    edtConnectionString->Text =
        PromptDataSource( (THandle)Handle, edtConnectionString->Text );
}
//---------------------------------------------------------------------------

Ciao!
