[SOLVED] ShowMessage in DataModule

[Marsheng]

From what I have read, I need to open the Datamodule before the Main form to get all the DB connections done first. I need to know if my Database is connected, however the Datamodule does not implement the ShowMessage function. I assume because no form has been created as yet.

Any suggestions on how to get a message displayed ?

Delphi 6.

Add Dialogs to the uses list of the datamodule

Thanks you are a star.

Interesting I have to add Dialogs to the unit and not Messages !!!!.

Messages is a unit with all the resourcestrings.
If you do CTRL+Click on the unit in the uses you jump to the unit. See what is in there.
And I find dialogs the logic place, since it's a dialog with a message which is shown to you. But that's a different discussion ;-)
