How can I change the path of an Alias directly in my programm (without the BDE) Are there any functions for opening the idapi.cfg and change the path of an alias?? I think I must do that after installing the programm but I cannot find anything in the help or books. Tanx a lot, ingo.sigl@online.de

TSession provides some stuff, but it relies on the BDE. It might be difficult to do this before the BDE is installed. Harold Howe [TeamB] http://www.bcbdev.com

Hi, Ingo! If you are looking to do this as part of an install, InstallShield Express, IIRC, has a facility for setting up aliases. If you need to do this at run-time, then just make sure the BDE is installed and then either use the TSession utilities or the BDE API (see the BDE help for more on that - it is in the BDE directory). ------ Mark Cashman (TeamB - C++ Builder), creator of The Temporal Doorway at http://www.temporaldoorway.com - Original digital art, writing, music and more - C++ Builder / JBuilder Tips and The C++ Builder Programmer's Webring (Join us!) http://www.temporaldoorway.com/programming/index.htm ------
