(Delphi ActiveX) Load JSON Data at Path

Demonstrates how to load JSON data into a path within a JSON database. For example, we begin with this JSON:

{
  "a": 1,
  "b": 2,
  "c": {
    "x": 1,
    "y": 2
  }
}

{
  "a": 1,
  "b": 2,
  "c": {
    "mm": 11,
    "nn": 22
  }
}

Note: This example requires Chilkat v11.0.0 or greater.
