I grew up with Delphi and as it ages it is slowly creeping into its grave (I
think!). I am now well into VS C# and getting to like it. I miss the
component based system though. I know one of the developers of C# was
instrumental in the development of Delphi. I am wondering if there is a way
to develop similar database controls (e.g. TTable, TDatasource, TDBGrid,
etc) like the ones in Delphi. I am not too savy with the current .net
system. Any thoughts out there?
