I don't have it on this machine, but if I remember well:
        strncpy(Table.Title, Edit1->Text.c_str(), sizeof(Table.Title));
should work quite well...  don't forget that the 'Text' member of Edit1
is a 'AnsiString' class, thus requires a conversion to be used like a
'normal' C null-terminated char array.
