Locating the Sample Database

Question: Where are the tables for the database demos provided with Delphi?

Answer: Try looking in C:\Program Files\Common Files\Borland Shared\Data.

Borland has apparently gotten around to organizing the "extras" under the parent directory of this folder. For example, if you've used the sample icons and images they've provided with nearly all versions of Delphi, these are now located in C:\Program Files\Common Files\Borland Shared\Images. (Though we think our glyphs collection is, in many cases, more professional looking.)

Also, if you want to search the Microsoft Help files provided with Delphi for a specific function, open the WIN32SDK.HLP file in C:\Program Files\Common Files\Borland Shared\MSHelp.
