I have programmed a database with three tables in delphi 5 and now i am trying to put the program on other computers and tryin to run it from the exe file. THe program executes but the database is non operational, because it says the database isnt setup on the computer. Through the database dektop and alias etc. so im wondering how do u bring the database with the program.

thanks.

host it on a remote server is the easiest way, packaging a whole database engine with an application would be patently silly.

when i programmed a database all i needed to do was copy the database over with the execute file if the database aint in the same folder as your code make it so it is and then re setup the tdatabase component so it is in the same folder as the exe and the code then just copy the database folder and the exe into another folder and put it on another computer and there is no reason it shouldnt work
