Hi!
I'm developing an applet which will connect to a remote database on
one of our servers (I'm working for an ISP). I'll be using Datagateway
server to connect to the paradox database. Currently at the developing stage
I've got Datagateway installed on my own computer which I specify as the
"remote server" when setting up the connection to the database. Setting up
the connection works well, so does doing an SQL-query on the data base, all
the data shows in my gridcontrol at design time. However, when i run the
applet with AppAccelerator i get this weird message:"The
driver:borland.Broker.RemoteDriver could not be loaded. This could be a
problem with the driver itself, or that the driver is not found on the
classpath. Modify the classpath in the project properties." So why does
everything work when I'm designing the applet but not when I'm running
it?

   The problem is probably one of deployment of the datagateway.zip 
classes..

   You might have to change your query descriptor and add:

Class.forName("borland.jdbc.Broker.RemoteDriver" );

  Some VM need this instead..

borland.jdbc.Broker.RemoteDriver driver = new
borland.jdbc.Broker.RemoteDriver();

        It seems there is a bug in some JVM implementations, that 
forName() does not instantiate class properly.
