<p>Further to <a href="https://stackoverflow.com/questions/10765722/indexed-property-in-delphi-beginner-is-making-multiple-player-objects-accessib">previous question</a>, When I try to compile this I get the error incompatible type on this line:</p> <pre><code> Property player[i : integer] : TStringList read p; </code></pre> <p>I'm unsure why? Here is whole class:</p> <pre><code>unit Battle; interface uses SysUtils,Dialogs,Classes,inifiles, StdCtrls; type TPlayers = class Private p : array[1..20] of TStringList; FPlaceUnit: Boolean; FTeamCount: Integer; Public Property player[i : integer] : TStringList read p; property PlaceUnit : Boolean read FPlaceUnit write FPlaceUnit; procedure AddPlayer (PlayerNo : integer; player : String); property TeamCount : Integer read FTeamCount write FTeamCount; constructor Create; virtual; End; {Host class} THostPlayers = Class(TPlayers) Private FIsHost: string; Public constructor Create; override; property IsHost : string read FIsHost write FIsHost; End; {Guest Class} TGuestPlayers = Class(TPlayers) Private FIsGuest: string; Public constructor Create; override; property IsGuest : string read FIsGuest write FIsGuest; End; implementation uses main; {constructor} constructor TPlayers.Create; begin p := TStringList.Create; end; constructor THostPlayers.Create; begin inherited; // Calls TPlayers.Create IsHost := 'No'; PlaceUnit := true; TeamCount :=0; end; constructor TGuestPlayers.Create; begin inherited; // Calls TPlayers.Create IsGuest := 'No'; PlaceUnit := true; TeamCount := 0; end; {ADD Player} procedure TPlayers.AddPlayer(PlayerNo : integer; player : String); var CharINI : TIniFile; begin CharINI := Tinifile.Create(thisdir+'\char\charstats.ini'); CharINI.ReadSectionValues(player,player[PlayerNo]); CharINI.Free; end; end. </code></pre>

Guidance

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
