+
+
+The TQSqlForm class creates and manages data entry forms
+tied to SQL databases.
+<p>
+
+
+<p> Typical use of a TQSqlForm consists of the following steps:
+<ul>
+<li> Create the widgets you want to appear in the form.
+<li> Create a cursor and navigate to the record to be edited.
+<li> Create the TQSqlForm.
+<li> Set the form's record buffer to the cursor's update buffer.
+<li> Insert each widget and the field it is to edit into the form.
+<li> Use <a href="#readFields">readFields</a>() to update the editor widgets with values from
+the database's fields.
+<li> Display the form and let the user edit values etc.
+<li> Use <a href="#writeFields">writeFields</a>() to update the database's field values with
+the values in the editor widgets.
+</ul>
+<p> Note that a TQSqlForm does not access the database directly, but
+most often via TQSqlFields which are part of a <a href="ntqsqlcursor.html">TQSqlCursor</a>. A
+<a href="ntqsqlcursor.html#insert">TQSqlCursor::insert</a>(), <a href="ntqsqlcursor.html#update">TQSqlCursor::update</a>() or <a href="ntqsqlcursor.html#del">TQSqlCursor::del</a>()
+call is needed to actually write values to the database.
+<p> Some sample code to initialize a form successfully:
+<p> <pre>
+ <a href="ntqlineedit.html">TQLineEdit</a> myEditor( this );
+ TQSqlForm myForm( this );
+ <a href="ntqsqlcursor.html">TQSqlCursor</a> myCursor( "mytable" );
+
+ // Execute a query to make the cursor valid
+ myCursor.<a href="ntqsqlcursor.html#select">select</a>();
+ // Move the cursor to a valid record (the first record)
+ myCursor.<a href="ntqsqlquery.html#next">next</a>();
+ // Set the form's record pointer to the cursor's edit buffer (which
+ // contains the current record's values)
+ myForm.<a href="#setRecord">setRecord</a>( myCursor.<a href="ntqsqlcursor.html#primeUpdate">primeUpdate</a>() );
+
+ // Insert a field into the form that uses myEditor to edit the
+ // field 'somefield' in 'mytable'
+ myForm.<a href="#insert">insert</a>( &amp;myEditor, "somefield" );
+
+ // Update myEditor with the value from the mapped database field
+ myForm.<a href="#readFields">readFields</a>();
+ ...
+ // Let the user edit the form
+ ...
+ // Update the database
+ myForm.<a href="#writeFields">writeFields</a>(); // Update the cursor's edit buffer from the form
+ myCursor.<a href="ntqsqlcursor.html#update">update</a>(); // Update the database from the cursor's buffer
+ </pre>
+
+<p> If you want to use custom editors for displaying and editing data
+fields, you must install a custom <a href="ntqsqlpropertymap.html">TQSqlPropertyMap</a>. The form
+uses this object to get or set the value of a widget.
+<p> Note that <a href="designer-manual.html">TQt Designer</a> provides
+a visual means of creating data-aware forms.
+<p> <p>See also <a href="#installPropertyMap">installPropertyMap</a>(), <a href="ntqsqlpropertymap.html">TQSqlPropertyMap</a>, and <a href="database.html">Database Classes</a>.

+<h3 class=fn><a name="TQSqlForm"></a>TQSqlForm::TQSqlForm ( <a href="ntqobject.html">TQObject</a>&nbsp;*&nbsp;parent = 0, const&nbsp;char&nbsp;*&nbsp;name = 0 )
+</h3>
+Constructs a TQSqlForm with parent <em>parent</em> and called <em>name</em>.
+
+<h3 class=fn><a name="~TQSqlForm"></a>TQSqlForm::~TQSqlForm ()
+</h3>
+Destroys the object and frees any allocated resources.
+
+<h3 class=fn>void <a name="clear"></a>TQSqlForm::clear ()<tt> [virtual slot]</tt>
+</h3>
+Removes every widget, and the fields they're mapped to, from the form.
+
+<h3 class=fn>void <a name="clearValues"></a>TQSqlForm::clearValues ( bool&nbsp;nullify = FALSE )<tt> [virtual slot]</tt>
+</h3>
+Clears the values in all the widgets, and the fields they are
+mapped to, in the form. If <em>nullify</em> is TRUE (the default is
+FALSE), each field is also set to NULL.
+
+<h3 class=fn>uint <a name="count"></a>TQSqlForm::count () const
+</h3>
+Returns the number of widgets in the form.
+
+<h3 class=fn><a href="ntqwidget.html">TQWidget</a>&nbsp;* <a name="fieldToWidget"></a>TQSqlForm::fieldToWidget ( <a href="ntqsqlfield.html">TQSqlField</a>&nbsp;*&nbsp;field ) const
+</h3>
+Returns the widget that field <em>field</em> is mapped to.
+
+<h3 class=fn>void <a name="insert"></a>TQSqlForm::insert ( <a href="ntqwidget.html">TQWidget</a>&nbsp;*&nbsp;widget, const&nbsp;<a href="ntqstring.html">TQString</a>&nbsp;&amp;&nbsp;field )<tt> [virtual]</tt>
+</h3>
+Inserts a <em>widget</em>, and the name of the <em>field</em> it is to be
+mapped to, into the form. To actually associate inserted widgets
+with an edit buffer, use <a href="#setRecord">setRecord</a>().
+<p> <p>See also <a href="#setRecord">setRecord</a>().
+
+<p>Examples: <a href="sql.html#x2225">sql/overview/form1/main.cpp</a> and <a href="sql.html#x2231">sql/overview/form2/main.cpp</a>.
+<h3 class=fn>void <a name="insert-2"></a>TQSqlForm::insert ( <a href="ntqwidget.html">TQWidget</a>&nbsp;*&nbsp;widget, <a href="ntqsqlfield.html">TQSqlField</a>&nbsp;*&nbsp;field )<tt> [virtual protected]</tt>
+</h3>
+This is an overloaded member function, provided for convenience. It behaves essentially like the above function.
+<p> Inserts a <em>widget</em>, and the <em>field</em> it is to be mapped to, into
+the form.
+
+<h3 class=fn>void <a name="installPropertyMap"></a>TQSqlForm::installPropertyMap ( <a href="ntqsqlpropertymap.html">TQSqlPropertyMap</a>&nbsp;*&nbsp;pmap )
+</h3>
+Installs a custom <a href="ntqsqlpropertymap.html">TQSqlPropertyMap</a>. This is useful if you plan to
+create your own custom editor widgets.
+<p> TQSqlForm takes ownership of <em>pmap</em>, so <em>pmap</em> is deleted when
+TQSqlForm goes out of scope.
+<p> <p>See also <a href="ntqdatatable.html#installEditorFactory">TQDataTable::installEditorFactory</a>().
+
+<p>Example: <a href="sql.html#x2237">sql/overview/custom1/main.cpp</a>.
+<h3 class=fn>void <a name="readField"></a>TQSqlForm::readField ( <a href="ntqwidget.html">TQWidget</a>&nbsp;*&nbsp;widget )<tt> [virtual slot]</tt>
+</h3>
+Updates the widget <em>widget</em> with the value from the SQL field it
+is mapped to. Nothing happens if no SQL field is mapped to the <em>widget</em>.
+
+<h3 class=fn>void <a name="readFields"></a>TQSqlForm::readFields ()<tt> [virtual slot]</tt>
+</h3>
+Updates the widgets in the form with current values from the SQL
+fields they are mapped to.
+
+<p>Examples: <a href="sql.html#x2226">sql/overview/form1/main.cpp</a> and <a href="sql.html#x2232">sql/overview/form2/main.cpp</a>.
+<h3 class=fn>void <a name="remove"></a>TQSqlForm::remove ( <a href="ntqwidget.html">TQWidget</a>&nbsp;*&nbsp;widget )<tt> [virtual protected]</tt>
+</h3>
+Removes a <em>widget</em>, and hence the field it's mapped to, from the
+form.
+
+<h3 class=fn>void <a name="remove-2"></a>TQSqlForm::remove ( const&nbsp;<a href="ntqstring.html">TQString</a>&nbsp;&amp;&nbsp;field )<tt> [virtual]</tt>
+</h3>
+This is an overloaded member function, provided for convenience. It behaves essentially like the above function.
+<p> Removes <em>field</em> from the form.
+
+<h3 class=fn>void <a name="setRecord"></a>TQSqlForm::setRecord ( <a href="ntqsqlrecord.html">TQSqlRecord</a>&nbsp;*&nbsp;buf )<tt> [virtual]</tt>
+</h3>
+Sets <em>buf</em> as the record buffer for the form. To force the
+display of the data from <em>buf</em>, use <a href="#readFields">readFields</a>().
+<p> <p>See also <a href="#readFields">readFields</a>() and <a href="#writeFields">writeFields</a>().
+
+<p>Examples: <a href="sql.html#x2238">sql/overview/custom1/main.cpp</a>, <a href="sql.html#x2227">sql/overview/form1/main.cpp</a>, and <a href="sql.html#x2233">sql/overview/form2/main.cpp</a>.
+<h3 class=fn><a href="ntqwidget.html">TQWidget</a>&nbsp;* <a name="widget"></a>TQSqlForm::widget ( uint&nbsp;i ) const
+</h3>
+Returns the <em>i</em>-th widget in the form. Useful for traversing
+the widgets in the form.
+
+<h3 class=fn><a href="ntqsqlfield.html">TQSqlField</a>&nbsp;* <a name="widgetToField"></a>TQSqlForm::widgetToField ( <a href="ntqwidget.html">TQWidget</a>&nbsp;*&nbsp;widget ) const
+</h3>

+<h3 class=fn>void <a name="writeField"></a>TQSqlForm::writeField ( <a href="ntqwidget.html">TQWidget</a>&nbsp;*&nbsp;widget )<tt> [virtual slot]</tt>
+</h3>
+Updates the SQL field with the value from the <em>widget</em> it is
+mapped to. Nothing happens if no SQL field is mapped to the <em>widget</em>.
+
+<h3 class=fn>void <a name="writeFields"></a>TQSqlForm::writeFields ()<tt> [virtual slot]</tt>
+</h3>
+Updates the SQL fields with values from the widgets they are

+or <a href="ntqsqlcursor.html#del">TQSqlCursor::del</a>() as appropriate.
