Я перерыл весь интернет и не нашел, как с помощью MyDac создать базу данных. Подскажите форум использующих ваш продукт.

Когда я переношу свою программу написанную на builder xe на другой компьютер, то там базы нет. Как правильно проверить существует ли база, а в этой базе таблица? и как создать таблицу программно?

To solve the problem you should connect to the Mysql system database before creating database, create new database and after this connect to new database, like this:

Code: Select all

MyConnection2->Database = "mysql";
MyConnection2->Connect();
MyConnection2->ExecSQL("CREATE DATABASE ...");
MyConnection2->Database = "new_database";
MyConnection2->Connect();

The point is that MySQL doesn't allow creating a new database without connecting to an existent database. The mysql database always exists (because it is a system database). Therefore you can use the code Dimon gave you.
