Description

Determines whether or not a string value corresponds to an existing Borland Database Engine (BDE) database alias known to the session.

Call IsAlias to determine if a string corresponds to the name of an existing BDE alias that can be used by the session. Name is the string to test.

If IsAlias returns true, Name is a valid alias.

Note: The aliases known to IsAlias depend on the ConfigMode property of the session. If ConfigMode is cmAll, then all aliases are available to the session.
