OK, I am considering building a DLL in XE5 to be called from D2007, to solve a problem. It would involve using a non-visual component not available in D2007. Apart from the obvious Unicode issues, I also need access to data, as determined by the calling program. I am thinking that the safest solution may be to give the DLL its own connection, and pass in the query. Any thoughts?

    I would keep it simple. Just have its own connection and query. Pass the parameters to a config/ini file . Have DLL read it when loading. Close connection when DLL is all done.

    Arun Singh that's just making it complicated. Race conditions. File existence and clean up. Brrrrr.
