Got a little conversion question here.

With the TUpdateSQL I was able to set parameters in the 'Query' for the update with the following code :

Usql.Query[ukInsert].ParamByName('test').AsString := SubStr;

With the TMSUpdateSQL, the Query property doesn't exist. So that code doesn't work. There is the SQL property, but it's only TStrings. Am I missing something ?

Thanks.

SDAC doesn't provide such functionality.

Yet more correct and easier it would be not to use TMSQupdateSQL. If there is a unique key field in a table, SDAC SQL Generator creates update queries automatically.

But when you want to add a Foreign key into your query to update the table, a TUpdateSQL is very usefull.

We always doing something like:

usqltest.Query[UpdateKind].ParamByName('IDFK').AsString := qry.FieldByName('ID').AsString;

With usqltest bind to the qrytest fo example. For simple update, we don't use any TUpdateSQL.

Thanks.
