    <p>No definitive answer, but a few other suggestions:-</p> <ul> <li><p>Have a look at the LMD Innovative <a href="http://www.lmdinnovative.com/products/vcl/lmdscriptpack/keyfeat.php">ScriptPack</a>, which supports native Pascal scripting, and also ActiveScripting-based languages. Caveat : I use a lot of the LMD tools and components, but I haven't personally used Scriptpack.</p></li> <li><p>LMD also have am <a href="http://www.lmdinnovative.com/products/vcl/lmdidetools/">IDE-Tools package</a>, which can really simplify the task of making a simple custom 'RAD' tool if you need to go that route</p></li> <li>Another vote for Lua. I've used Lua as a script language in C++Builder2010 apps, and it works well. You can leverage the C++Builder/Delphi RTTI to help the integration between Lua script and your C++ code.</li> </ul> <p>Re. Lua: We have a product which for many years had an ultrasimple 'homebrew' scripting system within it. No loops, conditionals or procedures - just a sequence of parameterized commands. We wanted to extend this to something more powerful, and picking a third-party solution seemed a lot less pain than reinventing the wheel. Primary reasons for choosing Lua for this were:-</p> <ul> <li>Fast</li> <li>Published books available (<a href="http://rads.stackoverflow.com/amzn/click/8590379825">Programming in Lua</a>)</li> <li>Written in C</li> <li>Directly embeddable within our project via static linking</li> <li>MIT License</li> <li>C++ Code can call invoke Lua code and access Lua variables</li> <li>Lua code can call C++ functions</li> <li>Small deployment footprint. Lua and it's standard libraries added under 200K to our .EXE, before compression.</li> </ul> <p>I'm sure other languages could have been equally good, but it was the 'lightweight' nature of Lua that tipped it for me.</p>

    1. COThanks @Roddy. A fully-native compiled script language sounds good! And their IDE tools also look useful. I don't know much about Lua: what is it about the language that makes you recommend it?

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.
