I don't nkow about this in detail but in the evaluation of D5 I'm doing I was up and
running with an ADO connection to ORACLE on my dev machine within 2-3 minutes
and conenction DataAware control willy-nilly as well as code managed queries.
Performance has been fairly comparable with BDE with no obvious problems. As part of
the evaluation I would be very, very interested in responses (from this list or other)
to this
particular subject as BDE distribution (IS Express not installing BDE properly) has
been
out largest Delphi headache for some time.
