Controls adding without Placing them
Okay, here's the deal:
when you use Delphi you can always just paint Controls on the forms. Now that is something I don't wanna do anymore...just because I have all these examples with only the source code...
I know that you can use the WinAPI functins and stuff to create a window, but that is something I don't want to do either. I'd like to just have one .pas file and to type everything in it there...
is this possible?
I'm a beginner, and kinda get the big idea about all the items and stuff. The book I have only uses sourcecode too, no explanation from "place this there, place that there".
Anybody?

yes it is posible but it is much more complicated.

Okay, then.........could you tell me?
I know about the dynamically creating control elements and placing them on the screen. is that what you mean with 'complicated'?

example:
var
b:Ttimer;
implemantation
procedure Tform1.func(sender:tobject
begin
......
end;
procedure Tform1.formcreate(sender:T
begin
b:=Ttimer.create(form1);
b.interval:=1;//property
b.ontimer:=func;//event
end;
var
b:Ttimer;
implemantation
procedure Tform1.func(sender:tobject
begin
......
end;
procedure Tform1.formcreate(sender:T
begin
b:=Ttimer.create(form1);
b.interval:=1;//property
b.ontimer:=func;//event
end;

UHM....so, if I understand this correctly, it determines whether it is an event or property by itself?????....

was that a yes or a no on my last comment???? You have the points, but please tell me that one thing.
//..... in delphi it means that compiler ignores what said after //
usually it's a coment which wrriten by programers.
you don't need to write //property or
//event after each action.
events and properties are determinied in
control such as Ttimer from the beginning in their source code.
when you write
b.interval:=1;
a compiler knows that it's a property.

Okay, duuuuuuh, I know about the comments, just to be sure that the compiler knows about it.
Thnx!
