You cannot hook up DB controls to an unidirectional query but that should not stop you from inspecting and saving it. 

I am using FireDAC with ODBC driver from the first version (to connect to Informix database). The data is never corrupted. The only problem I am aware is when writing to database FireDAC ignores the database locale and uses the default Windows locale for non-unicode language to write data.

paule3232, I get .bpl file with your instruction, but I can't install with Install Packages. I get error and don't know what to do next.

You get an error message because the package you try to install is a run time, not a design time package  

I believe you would have to do that in Word:

Doesn't matter in this case, because it's just an example, but definitily something to consider if it plays a role.

Today it's an example. Tomorrow you or somebody else sees the code and use it in a real application. Copy paste errors are always a fun thing to search for or debug.

I agree.

Same for me, it would be easier to create bug reports.

Delphi just crashes can anyone think what would cause thsi?

My bet is on stack overflow. You should try to debug the IDE to catch the reason.

It's also bad idea that they've changed the install folder for KonopkaControls when installed from GetIt. If you have multiple registry entries you have to update them manually (IMHO there should be options when downloading from GetIt to update it).

Didn't noticed it's Gexpert....

GetIt worked ok 4.5 hours ago.

Nice catch, first read the full documentation of the procedure:

(apart from reporting this bug to Embarcadero, of course).

If it's Embarcaderos fault it's tough to report it. I have had a situation when the IDE gave me the dialog to report a bug, it generates everything including the call stack. Even after submiting it I was asked for a test case (in my case it is impossible to give) while the call stack should help a developer to locate the error. 

In this case the first step should be to generate a call stack to see where to search for the bug.

ot sure how to use WhichFailedToLoad 

The easiest way to use it:

ShowMessage(WhichFailedToLoad()); 

I am not sure that those dlls are shipped with Delphi. There are some old threads about this error like 

You can try WhichFailedToLoad from IdSSLOpenSSLHeaders to see which dll failed. Maybe a dependency on the dll. From where did you downloaded the open SSL dlls?

For me the easiest way is to use the character map copy - paste it into the source. Tested using

var
  Φ: real;
begin
  Φ:=5.8;
  showmessage(FloatToStr(Φ));
end;

FMX is just another reason to keep up with the Delphi version. Unlike Windows, other platforms are not backward compatible.

BDE

BDE (Borland Database Enginge) is deprecated for about 20 years you should not use that. If you are referencing to the Delphi version you should use the official one that everyone can understand.

I can't see any month name parsing up to version 20.

If you are looking how the Delphi is converting the month names you can search for @AFormatSettings.ShortMonthNames in the System.SysUtils.

Using Delphi 11.2 update 1 the code works correctly.

Delphi 11.2 is an update on version 11.

There was a change that only with active subscription you can download from Registered Products Portal.

In Delphi 10.4 the compiler directives {$Q+} or {$R+} don't seem to have any effect anymore. 

$Q = Overflow checking (Delphi)

$R = Range checking

These directives are working and have their meaning just have nothing to do with ExceptionMask they are different things.

FastMM_EnterDebugMode;

Are you using fastmm5? I don't have this procedure in Fastmm4.

When the user moves outside the rect you want to move the rectangle to the first position thus the AnimateFloat should be corrected:

 

procedure TForm2.Rectangle2MouseLeave(Sender: TObject);
begin
   Rectangle2.AnimateFloat('Position.y', 222.0, 5, TAnimationType.InOut,
    TInterpolationType.Linear);
//  Rectangle2.Position.y := (Rectangle1.Position.Y + 200);
end;

Now you can easily see the real problem. As the rectangle is moved the mouse will get outside the rectangle and that will trigger the mouse leave event. To solve this you can change the height of the rectangle to 300.

The repository doesn't contains the files to install the component. You can use it from code (hint there are demo projects to show how you can use it).
