-# DevExpress VCL Reports - Store Report Layouts in a Database
 
-This example stores a [report layout](https://docs.devexpress.com/VCL/dxReport.TdxReport.Layout) (XML-based template) in the BLOB field of a memory-based dataset ([TdxMemData](https://docs.devexpress.com/VCL/dxmdaset.TdxMemData) inherited from the [TDataSet](https://docwiki.embarcadero.com/Libraries/Athens/en/Data.DB.TDataSet) class shipped with the standard VCL library).
+# DevExpress Reports for Delphi/C++Builder – Store Report Layouts in a Database
 
-## Testing the example
+This example application stores [DevExpress report layouts][TdxReport.Layout] in a database.
+The application allows users to create and save report layouts, modify existing layouts, and open layouts in Report Designer/Viewer.
+
+
+The example uses a memory-based dataset as the database used to store layouts.
+The dataset is based on the [TdxMemData] component from the DevExpress library,
+inherited from the [TDataSet] class shipped with the standard VCL library.
+
+## Test the Example
 
 * Run the sample app and click **New Report** to create an empty database record.
-* Click **Show Designer** to display the [Report Designer](https://docs.devexpress.com/XtraReports/119176/web-reporting/web-end-user-report-designer) dialog.
+* Click **Show Designer** to display the [Report Designer][dx-report-designer] dialog.
 * Create a report layout using tools available within the UI.
 * Click the hamburger button, select the **Save** option, and close the dialog.
-* Close the app. The [TdxMemData](https://docs.devexpress.com/VCL/dxmdaset.TdxMemData) component will store layout data between sessions.
-* Run the sample app again. Click **View Designer** to load the saved report layout, or **View Report** to preview a layout-based report in the [Report Viewer](https://docs.devexpress.com/XtraReports/401850/web-reporting/web-document-viewer) dialog.
+* Close the app. The [TdxMemData] component will store layout data between sessions.
+* Run the sample app again. Click **View Designer** to load the saved report layout, or **View Report** to preview a layout-based report in the [Report Viewer][dx-report-viewer] dialog.
