Use FireDAC Array DML to write many rows in one Execute call
Batch inserts, updates, and deletes with RAD Studio FireDAC Array DML to cut database round-trips.
The Delphi Search Box Problem: Parameterizing FireDAC Queries by Default
Concatenating user input into SQL strings is a liability. See how to use TFDQuery parameters in Delphi to separate code from data, reduce injection risk, and avoid type-mapping surprises.
Delphi RTTI and Component Streaming: Why Properties Disappear from .dfm Files
Delphi’s streaming system persists only the properties it can discover through RTTI. Learn how published declarations, stored directives, and ownership rules control what reaches the .dfm file—and how to verify the round-trip.

Learn how to diagnose and fix EAccessViolation errors in RAD Studio VCL applications by identifying nil and dangling pointers using the integrated debugger and FastMM4.
radstudioHarnessing Delphi LiveBindings: Declarative UI Updates Without Code
LiveBindings lets Delphi devs tie UI controls to data sources declaratively, cutting boilerplate but adding RTTI overhead. This post walks through a simple VCL example, shows how to set up bindings, highlights trade‑offs, and offers a quick sanity check.
Server-Side Pagination in Delphi with FireDAC LIMIT and OFFSET
Fetch only the rows your Delphi grid needs by binding PageSize and Offset to FireDAC TFDQuery, with limits and verification steps.
FireDAC as a unified data access decision in RadStudio
FireDAC lets RadStudio apps keep data access code stable across desktop and mobile by separating connection, command and presentation, with driver swaps instead of rewrites.
