__property System::Classes::TStrings* Params = {read=FParams, write=SetParams};

Description

Contains database connection parameters for the Borland Database Engine (BDE) alias associated with the database component.

Use Params to examine or specify database connection parameters, such as path name, server name, schema-caching size, language driver, user name, and password. Actual parameters in Params differ depending on the current BDE alias and driver for the database component.

Params is a list of string items, each representing a different database connection parameter. If the AliasName property specifies a valid BDE alias, then Params automatically contains the parameters defined for that alias. If, instead of providing an alias, an application uses the DriverName property to provide a local alias, the application must provide Params values directly.

Note: Applications can use Params to override the default settings supplied by a BDE alias.

Tip: At design time double-click a TDatabase component to invoke the Database editor and set Params.
