Data access error on demo installation

I have installed and successfully built the package under C++ Builder 5 Enterprise edition.

When attempting to run the FRDEMO package, I get an 'unknown database. Alias: DBDEMOS' error.

Is this something I have set up wrong. When checking the BDE Administrator (which I haven't used before) the DBDEMOS alias does not exist and after a few attempts at setting the alias up on the BDE Administrator with no success I have posted this message in the hope that someone can tell me what I need to do to get the demo running as it should.

Thanks in advance

    Hi
    I am not a cbuilder user so i Have no idea what borland supplied with versions of c builder.
    But the dbdemos alias in delphi points to the borland demo data.
    it may be something like this
    C:\Program Files\Common Files\Borland Shared\Data
    regards ;)

Rich Text Editor. To edit a paragraph's style, hit tab to get to the paragraph menu. From there you will be able to pick one style. Nothing defaults to paragraph. An inline formatting menu will show up when you select text. Hit tab to get into that menu. Some elements, such as rich link embeds, images, loading indicators, and error messages may get inserted into the editor. You may navigate to these using the arrow keys inside of the editor and delete them with the delete or backspace key.
