Several ways to do this, MyODBC, ZEOS, ASTA. dbExpress has issues, these can be confirmed in the Borland News groups. ZEOS works well and is free, MyODBC works but the BDE must be installed on the Client if the native database componets id D6 - D5 is used, ASTA is fast and excellent for Internet applications.
