Not for what I've done.  I basically just drag tables into the
dataModule designer which creates a query whose select statement is:

select * from <tableName>

That is all the SQL I use for nearly anything.  For all other
relations and filters, I use the data objects, i.e. query, rowset,
etc.  I see that Steve (an SQL Master) has supplied the SQL to get you
started.  However, due to the nature of VdB and the BDE, I believe
that most of the rowsets generated by such SQL will be read-only.
That is the reason I use the data objects.  To get live, editable
data.
