Normally you don't have to do anything for that. <br />
<br />
TComponentProperty does all that for you.<br />
<br />
The property must be in the published section of the component.<br />

Thanks Jacco,<br />

I haven't done anything &nbsp;like this before, so I didn't know that you could just declare the property as a TTable property, and that Delphi would automatically populate a listing of all TTables available.<br />
<br />
Thanks for the help.<br />

<div class="content wysiwyg-content">
I am creating a component, and one of the published properities (to show up in the object inspector) needs to be a drop-down selection box that is populated with all of the TTable components on the current form. &nbsp;I tried looking at the .pas files for some of the standard VCL components that do this, but I couldnt follow all of the code.<br />
<br />
Any thoughts &nbsp;on how to do this?<br />
