    <p>Let me start that you cannot seriously expect a 2001 software development product like Delphi 6 to fully work with a 2009 operating system like Windows 7 that has since then undergone major structural changes.</p> <p>Development products by nature work at the edge (usually cutting, sometimes turning into bleeding) of what is possible at the operating system versions that were current at their time.</p> <p>Changes in operating systems sometimes cause software to stop working, or to limit their functionality. This is more so for development software.</p> <p>In this case, major changes introduced since Windows Vista, like UAC, session management, video output and task bar management will affect your Delphi experience.</p> <p>That is one of the reasons that Delphi 2007 got released with 2006 backward compatibility: to solve many of those problems.</p> <p>That said, there are basically three options for you:</p> <ul> <li>run Delphi under a Windows XP virtual machine (in Windows 7, you can use <a href="http://www.microsoft.com/windows/virtual-pc/download.aspx" rel="nofollow">XP mode</a> for free if you have Windows 7 Professional, Enterprise or Ultimate, or something commercial like <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VMware_Workstation" rel="nofollow">VMware workstation</a>/<a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vmware_player" rel="nofollow">player</a>, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Virtual_pc" rel="nofollow">Virtual-PC</a>, <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VirtualBox" rel="nofollow">link text</a>VirtualBox and others in Windows 7, or </li> <li>learn about UAC and other new features, and how they influence software in general, and more specifically software development environments; then install Delphi 6 working around parts of the limitations and live with the remaining limitations</li> <li>upgrade to a newer Delphi version: Delphi XE (unicode) works fine, and gets you a free Delphi 2007 (non-unicode) which works nicely as well</li> </ul> <p>--jeroen</p>

    1. CO@Jeroen I'm running D6 happily on a 64 bit Win7 machine with UAC enabled. I don't run it as administrator. I did the same on Vista when it came out.

    3. CO@Jeroen Yes I like to think I've got a pretty good handle on the new features introduced in Vista! But it really doesn't take much to get D6 running fine with UAC. In fact I think the registry virtualization will actually make it a reasonable out of the box experience.

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.
