Visual Query Builder-like component needed

I am a user of the non-C/S version of Delphi developing a prototype
application that could be enhanced by functionality that allows users to
point and click to a visual representation of the db schema to build
queries. The marketing and doc lit for the Delphi C/S describes the
Visual Query Builder. This looks similar to what I need. However, I
can't tell if the VQB is available for integration into apps, or if it is
offered simply as a tool to be used in the IDE.

If the VQB can not be integrated into apps, does anyone know of a
compoennt that may be avaialble commercially or through shareware that
does similar stuff?

Take a look at the Shazam Report Wizard. They have a REALLY nice
interactive query builder. I use it now instead of the VQB. (It
means I have to cut and paste, but it is still MUCH faster.) It
is shareware with EXE, DCU and Source versions available. Should
be available whereever Delphi shareware is loaded.
