Help with Advantage needed..

rbuser

I made an end-user solution with report explorer and everything mostly like
in example in Demos\End User Database\Advantage. I followed the instructions
in ReadMe.doc in the same folder. When I tried connecting to Ads table
rbItem.ADT I got an error message 'AdsItem: Error7008: The specified table,
memo file, or index file was unable to be opened.'. When I tried connecting
to that table from Advantage's Data Architect it worked fine. I found out
that Advantage stores memo fields in *.adm files, but that's as far as I got
to.
Is there a solution to this?

Thank you in advance!

P.S. Advantage is version 6.2, RBuilder 6

Instead of using our components, can you connect on a Delphi form using a
TADSTable and connect its datasource to a TDBGrid to see the item dataset?
How is your Advantage alias configured? It should be able to connect to
ADT/ADI/ADM files. Check the alias configuration in your Data Architect
under the Tools menu to see if that option is checked.
