You can retrieve all records from this table using the TMyTable component. (For the example see the Table demo that is a part of MyDAC general demo. You can find this demo in %MyDAC%\Demos\ directory. %MyDAC% is the MyDAC installation path on your computer.)
After the records are received to the client, you can display them using the standard DB-aware controls like TDBLookupListBox, TDBText, TDBEdit, TDBGrid, etc. For more information read the Delphi Help.
