## Description

TCustomSQLQuery encapsulates a SQL statement: it implements all the necessary #fcl.db.TDataset functionality to be able to handle a result set. It can also be used to execute SQL statements that do not return data, using the ExecSQL method.

Do not instantiate a TCustomSQLQuery class directly, instead use the TSQLQuery descendent.
