The Borland Database Engine includes a number of supplemental tools and examples that simplify the job of developing applications with BDE.
Tool |

Simple user interface for viewing and creating tables. |
|
Tool for managing driver, system, and alias configuration. |

Depending on whether you save the settings in the BDE Administrator in 32-bit or composite 16-bit/32-bit format, some or all configuration information may be stored in the default configuration file. |
|
BDE online help file (in Windows Help format) for 32-bit systems only. |

A complete basic BDE program suitable for use as a template for structuring your own programs. This example program is provided in forms usable with Borland C, C++Builder, and Delphi. |
|
Complete code for the Chk function, which returns more complete error information about BDE functions than would be returned by the standard error string. |
|
API function examples |
Individual topics for BDE API functions include examples in both C/C++ (for Borland C and C++Builder) and Object Pascal (for Delphi). |
See Introduction to BDE programming for detailed examples of each stage of the programming process.
Also see the Function reference section of this guide for examples illustrating the use of each function in both C and Delphi (Pascal) languages.
