Build a Simple VCL Application for Sage 200 データ

Embarcadero RAD Studio provides a development environment for Delphi and C++Builder applications. With the CData ODBC Driver for Sage 200, you gain access to live Sage 200 データ within RAD Studio, abstracting the data into tables, views, and stored procedures that can be used to retrieve Sage 200 データ. This article will walk through connecting to Sage 200 and creating a simple VCL application with the Form Designer.

Create a Connection to Sage 200 データ

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.

• Schema：どのエディションのSage 200 に接続するかを決定します。StandardUK または ProfessionalUK を指定してください。
• Subscription Key：接続を確立するために使用するAPI へのアクセスを提供します。まず、 Sage 200 API web サイトにログインして、アカウントにマッチするAPI エディションにサブスクライブしてください。 こちらから手順を実行できます。https://developer.columbus.sage.com/docs/services/api/uk. その後、Sage 200 へのログインするとプロファイル内でサブスクリプションキーを確認できます。

You can then follow the steps below to use the Data Explorer to create a FireDAC connection to Sage 200 データ.

1. In a new VCL Forms application, expand the FireDAC node in the Data Explorer.
2. Right-click the ODBC Data Source node in the Data Explorer.
3. Click Add New Connection.
4. Enter a name for the connection.
5. In the FireDAC Connection Editor that appears, set the DataSource property to the name of the ODBC DSN for Sage 200.

Create VCL Applications with Connectivity to Sage 200 データ

Follow the procedure below to start executing queries to Sage 200 データ from a simple VCL application that displays the results of a query in a grid.

1. Drop a TFDConnection component onto the form and set the following properties:

   • ConnectionDefName: Select the FireDAC connection to Sage 200 データ.
   • Connected: Select True from the menu and, in the dialog that appears, enter your credentials.

2. Drop a TFDQuery component onto the form and set the properties below:

   • Connection: Set this property to the TFDConnection component, if this component is not already specified.

   • SQL: Click the button in the SQL property and enter a query. For example:

     SELECT Id, Code FROM Banks WHERE Code = '12345'
   • Active: Set this property to true.

3. Drop a TDataSource component onto the form and set the following property:

   • DataSet: In the menu for this property, select the name of the TFDQuery component.

4. Drop a TDBGrid control onto the form and set the following property:

   • DataSource: Select the name of the TDataSource.
5. Drop a TFDGUIxWaitCursor onto the form — this is required to avoid a run-time error.

You now have an executable application that displays the results of the SQL Query set in the TFDQuery object.
