1.Introduction:
The paper is aimed at those who want to develop Windows applications using
Delphi programming environment. We chose Delphi because it’s easy learned, very
like the Pascal language is taught in school. Another reason I chose
Delphi environment is that after compiling small executable programs that run are obtained
fast and does not require libraries that can run (a similar program written in Visual Basic requires
approx. 5 megabytes of libraries).
To understand and use this user guide is necessary to know
Pascal language well, since Delphi’s Pascal is practical object-oriented language. With
Although Delphi’s object-oriented language is not required knowledge of the principles
scheduling in such a simple language for making programs. If it wants
the development of components for Delphi or change some of the then existing
is required knowledge of scheduling principles in object-oriented language.
We chose to present Delphi 5 Enterprise Edition is the best option because
complete, other versions: Professional Edition, Standard Edition being abridged version,
not contain all the Enterprise version features.Image may be NSFW.

Resources needed and the installation was run Delphi’s are:
· CPU – Pentium 90 MHz, 166 MHz recommended
· Windows 9x/Me, 2000, NT4 with Service Pack 3 or later
· Memory – 32 MB RAM, 64 MB recommended
· Drive – 80 MB (minimum installation), 250 MB recommended
· VGA monitor, recommend a resolution of 800×600 SVGA
· Mouse
· CD-ROM
Presenting DELPHI 5:
When you start Delphi, it’s appears as the figure below:
From the menu bar can be accessed Delphi’s menus, toolbar buttons allowing quick access to key commands.
The range of commands allows easy access to over 200 Delphi components of the environment. For better management components are split on multiple pages, with the possibility of adding new pages and some new components.
Left image objects can be observed inspector (Object Inspector) by means of which objects can be modified properties (Properties) and can be set to routines (procedures) will be executed when the appearance of events (Events).
-Bar menus
Bookmarks button-range components of the blade component Pages
-Object-Inspector
-New start-window design
- Main menus and commands (menu bar)
File menu:
It is used to open, save, close, print new or existing projects or files to add new windows (form) or program units (units) project opened
We find the following menu options:
• New – opens a dialog where we can choose what object to create,
or we can choose a wizard (wizard) to help us create a new object.
• New Application – create a new project that contains an empty window, a united and a project file.
• New Form – creates an empty window and adds a current project
• New frame – creates a new frame (window dedicated invisible components
under the project, is used for better management components
used on the project) for the current project
• Open – opens a dialog for loading a project window, united or text file.
• Open Project – opens a dialog for loading an existing project (files with BPR or BPK)
• Reopen – opens a menu that contains the latest projects or modules used
• Save – Save the current file
• Save As – Save the current file using a new name
• Save Project As – saves the current project with a new name
• Save All – saves all open files
• Close – closes the current project and all associated files
• Close All – closes all open files
• Use Unit – adds the selected units in the active mode uses clause
• Print – prints the current file
• Exit – closes the project and leave the Delphi environment
Edit menu:
It is used to manipulate text or components during program creation.
The menu can be found following options:
• Undo / Undelete – Undo the last action or deletion
• Redo – Undo the last undo operation
• Cut – moves the selected object to the Clipboard
• Copy – copies the selected object to the Clipboard
• Paste – copies the clipboard contents at cursor position
• Delete – delete selected object
• Select All – selects all components of the window (form)
• Align to Grid – Aligns the selected components to the nearest grid point
• Bring to Front – moves the selected component in front
• Send to Back – moves the selected component back
• Align – aligns components
• Size – resizes the selected components
• Scale – all components proportionally resizes window
• Tab Order – change the order in which salt pressing Tab
• Creation Order – change the order in which components are created
• Children Flip – moves objects mirror is useful if not read from left to right but conversely
• Lock Secures Controls – “Freeze” all components in current positions
• Add to interfaces – define a new method, a new event, a new property
for an ActiveX component
Search menu:
The menu is used to search for text, objects, errors, unit links, variables and symbols in the code editor (editing window where the code).
In this menu we can find options:
• Find – searching for specified text and marks its first appearance in the code editor
• Find in Files – searches for specified text and displays each match in the code editor window under
• Replace – searches for specified text and replaces it with another
• Search Again – Repeat the last searchImage may be NSFW.

• Incremental search – Search for text as it is written
• Go to Line Number – move cursor to specified line
• Find Error – running searches last error
• Browse Symbol – a symbol searches
View menu:
It is used to display or hide various elements of the Delphi environment.
We find the following menu options:
• Project Manager – Project Manager display, it can be used to
browse project files, to copy, delete, add, save.
• Translation Manager – displays translation manager
• Object Inspector – Inspector displays objects
To-Do List – is visible list of what needs to be done in the project
• Alignment Palette – Displays a window where there are options for aligning objects
• Browser – displays a window that can be viewed united sites and classes used in the project
• Code Explorer – Code editor is visible
• Component List – a list of Delphi’s components
• Window List – Make a list of all visible windows are open Delphi’s
• Debug Windows – brings up a menu from which the windows can be chosen for the program will display debugging (breakpoints, call of subprograms, variables, threads of execution, modules, CPU, FPU)
• Desktops – to display, save or delete various modes of settlement of windows
• Toggle Form / Unit – window and switch between your necessary units
• Units – A list of all units of the project sites
• Forms – a list of all windows (form) existing project
• Type Library – libraries editor displays of types (Type Library), due to
create type information for ActiveX controls, COM objects and other objects MTS
• New Edit Window – yet open a code editor
• Toolbars – opens a menu that can be selected as toolbars will be displayed11
