Question about twidememo support in MyDAC 5.x

snorkel · Post by **snorkel** » Thu 02 Aug 2007 17:51

Hi,
I have two PCs, one is running Delphi 2007 Enterprise and the other one at home is running Delphi 2007 PRO.

On the Enterprise version the Twidememo support works perfectly, however when I compile the same app the Delphi 2007 Pro the widememo support stops working and all I get in the TNT memo controls is ????????

Is there some stupid difference in the SKUs of Delphi PRO and below that prevent the use of Twidememo?

Is anyone else having issues with twidememo and Delphi 2007 Pro?

Thanks,

Tony

Do you connect to the same MySQL from both workstations?
Try to run your application built with Delphi 2007 Enterprise at the workstation where Delphi 2007 Professional is installed. Does it work correctly?

yes, I have the exe from the Enterprise edition and it works perfectly against the same server. I just verified it again.

The Pro version I actually just installed two days ago on a fresh install of XP Pro 64bit (same OS the Delphi 2007 Enterprise is installed on)

There might be a different version of TNT controls on the D2007E, but that should not make any difference should it?

I know there are differences between PRO and Enterprise for DBExpress, for example pro does not have the DBX SQL Montitor component.

It is really looking like it's a issue with PRO vs the higher SKUs.

I would ask on the CodeGear Newsgroups, but I have not been able to connect to them for days.

Thanks,

Tony

Here is a screenshot showing both exes running next to each other against the exact same server and DB.

The one that shows the Russian text is the one compiled with D2007E

Try to save value of this field to а file (TWideMemoField.SaveToFile) and
review it. Is there a common two-bytes Unicode?
