Unicode in Filter expression

Post by GuzunNicolae » Wed 04 Apr 2007 12:13

Hello

Can I use Unicode strings in Filter expression of a dataset?

I used OnFilterRecord but it is very slow. I have a dataset of 80.000 and more records.

Thanks

Unfortunately you cannot, becuase the Filter property is declared as a string (not WideString) in the db.pas unit. This is a Delphi restriction.
