TDbfBrowse versus TDBBrowse

[g.s.rogers]

Based upon the video examples from the Xailer website, I have been using the
TDbfBrowse in my forms, even though I am using datasources and datasets for
the data controls on other parts of the form. Should I be using TDBBrowse
instead? The introduction to datacontrols talks a little about TDBBrowse and
I understand that TDbfBrowse manages a table, while TDBBrowse manages a
dataset and therefore automatically updates any linked datacontrol. I'm
thinking I should have been using TDBBrowse all along even though I my forms
do what they are supposed to do.
Any comments on when to use one or the other control would be appreciated.
TIA,
Gary

Gary,
If you are using DataControls I highly recommend to use TDBBrowse instead of
TDbfBrowse.

Ignacio,
I'm struggling to learn how to get TDBBrowse to work. I see that there is a
Property oDataSet that I set and that each column has an oDataField
Property. I assume that oDataField is a valid field name in the referenced
oDataSet so that if I have an oDataSet that is linked to CAFEEGRP.DBF and
there is a field in CAFEEGRP.DBF named "Module", then the oDataField
Property for a column of this oDBBrowse object could be simply "Module". Is
this correct? I ask because that is the way I have it set up and the
TDBBrowse object is not displaying anything.
To recap:
(1) I have an oDataSetFeeGroups linked to CAFEEGRP.DBF
(2) I have an oDBBrowseFeeGroups linked to oDataSetFeeGroups
(3) In that oDBBrowseFeeGroups object, column 1 has an oDataField of
"Module"
When I compile and run this form, nothing displays in the browse. What am I
missing?
TIA,
Gary

Disregard the last message. I had no test data in the table. Sorry.
