Embarcadero RAD Studio provides a development environment for Delphi and C++Builder applications. With the CData ODBC Driver for SAP Concur, you gain access to live SAP Concur data within RAD Studio, abstracting the data into tables, views, and stored procedures that can be used to both retrieve and update SAP Concur data. This article will walk through connecting to SAP Concur using the Data Explorer.

Configure a Connection to SAP Concur

If you have not already, first specify connection properties in an ODBC DSN (data source name). This is the last step of the driver installation. You can use the Microsoft ODBC Data Source Administrator to create and configure ODBC DSNs.

  6. Back in the Data Explorer, expand the tables for the connection.

  7. Create a new VCL Forms application and drag a table (for example: Departments) onto the form.

  8. Select the DepartmentsTable object on the form and set the Active property to true.

  9. Right-click on the object, bind visually, and link everything (*) to a new control (TStringGrid).

  10. Arrange the TStringGrid on the form and run the application to see the Departments data.
