Hi and thanks for reading...

I am using MS SQL Server 7.0 and MIDAS to create a database app.  I have
successfully created an app server test program and a client test program.
These two programs and MS SQL server reside on the same NT 4.0 server.  The
application server is nothing more than a TTable and TDataSetProvider.  The
client app uses a TClientDataSet, TDataSource, TDataGrid???, and a
TDCOMConnection to view the table.  The client application works on the
server but not remotely on a seperate client PC.

The server app is an executable so I registered using regsvr32 (BTW, I can't
find the export on the context menu of TTables, TQueries, and TProviders
like the documentation suggest would be there).  I recevie an exception when
running the client app on a remote PC saying "error in string class".  I
have NOT registered the server app on the client PC and I don't really know
how to.  I mean I guess I could copy the server app executable over to the
client PC and use regsvr32 but it seems that there should be an easier
way....is there?

Also, how can you connect a TTable or TQuery to a MS SQL view or stored
procedure?  In MS SQL server are stored procedures just fancy views that are
more than just queries....they incorporate logic too?

Thanks,
Rich
