Re: TZF - TTzVFile anomaly

Hi Randy,

I made some changes to your unit.  I have never had success with using 
the 'post' and 'insert' and 'delete' functions.  I usually revert to the 
Topaz commands of 'appendrec','replacerec' and 'deleterec'.  I'm using 
D5, which didn't have the 'Varients' unit, so I removed it to get it to 
work.  I also usually add a Tznavigator component and use its commands 
for inserting & posting since I also make my own buttons for those 
commands.  I also make one procedure to 'ToggleButtons' on the form 
instead of referring to them separately:

Procedure TForm1.ToggleButtons;
begin
      addbutton.enabled := not addbutton.enabled;
      deletebutton.enabled := not deletebutton.enabled;
end;

I forgot to rename the actual unit, so be careful when you unzip it.
