一、概述

在用Delphi編寫數據庫程序時，經常涉及到數據的導入和導出操作，如：將大型數據庫中的數據存儲為便攜文件，以便于出外閱讀；將存儲在文件中的數據信息，導入到另外的數據庫中；而且，通過將數據庫中的數據存儲為數據文件，更便于程序內部和程序間交換數據，避免通過內存交換數據的煩瑣步驟，例如在筆者編寫的通用報表程序中即以該控件作為數據信息傳遞的載體。
二、基本思路
作為數據報存儲控件，應能夠存儲和讀入數據集的基本信息（如：字段名，字段的顯示名稱，字段的數據類型，記錄數，字段數，指定記錄指定字段的當前值等），應能夠提供較好的封裝特性，以便于使用。
基于此，筆者利用Delphi5.0面向對象的特點，設計開發了數據報存儲控件。
三、實現方法

通過測試，該控件對Ttable,Tquery, TaodTable, TadoQuery, TibTable, TibQuery等常用的數據集控件等都能較好的支持，并且具有較好的效率（測試：1100條人事記錄，23個字段存儲為文件約用時2秒鐘）。

四、控件的基本使用方法
1．存儲數據集中的數據到文件
IbStorage1.Open; //創建存儲流
IbStorage1.SaveToFile(AdataSet, Afilename);
2．從文件中讀出數據信息
IbStorage1.Open;
IbStorage1.LoadFromFile(AfileName);
3．對數據報存儲控件中數據的訪問
Value := IbStorage1.Fields[ArecNo, AfieldNo]; //字符串類型
其它略。
五、結束語
通過編寫此數據報存儲控件，較好地解決了數據庫程序中數據的存儲和交換問題，為數據庫程序的開發提供了一種實用的控件。
該控件在Windows98，Delphi5開發環境下調試通過。
