You probably don't need to use any special components. Servers provide
services and you should be able to take advantage of these services as if
there were local to your machine.


Storing files on a server, for example, works the same way as it does
locally. The only difference is that you need to specify that the file
location is a different machine. So instead of using a file name such as
"C:\My Documents\Something.Dat" you might use something like
\\MyServer\UserDocuments\Something.Dat, where \\MyServer is the name of the
server and UserDocuments is a share name provided by the server.


Can you supply me with a specification and money?

I'm novice to Delphi, VB was my primary language and I'm looking for some
huge help.

In vb, i have a component (OCX) that "informs" any other component of the
same type regardless of parent form.

I need same thing in delphi, but lack of knowledge stops me from building it


How to notify all forms that something happened in one of them? .. and send
some info about that?

any help would be appreciated

Try SendMessage.
Read help topic from WinApi32 (it's installed with delphi, if you select).
