Hello Bob,

This is off the top of my head - I haven't used that component (yet)
myself, and haven't tested the following, but at a guess it would be
something like this:

EITHER:

var
  LogMessages: TStringList;
begin
  ....
  LogMessages := TStringList.Create;
  ....
  PSQLRestore1.RestoreFromFile(FileRestore, LogMessages);

... and then later you could display the contents of LogMessages, if you
need to.


OR:

  PSQLRestore1.RestoreFromFile(FileRestore, 'c:\logfile.txt');


I hope this helps.

Ray.
