Hi,
I'm new at Delphi and databases but want to use a DataBase-component and
connect it to a database without using the ODBC. I have put the component on
a datamodule an wrote the following code:
******************************************************
procedure TDMSystem.DataModuleCreate(Sender: TObject);
var
  path, currDir : string;
begin
  currDir := sysutils.GetCurrentDir;
  path := currDir+'\Data\Data.mdb';
  DataBase.DatabaseName := path;
  DataBase.Connected := true;
end;
*****************************************************
When I try to run the application I get an error with the this message:
"Invalid parameter"

If there is someone who can help me with this problem I would be very
thankful.

//Magnus
