Hello,
we have Delphi 5 application that connects to MS SQL 6.5 by BDE.
The plan is to upgrade DB to MS SQL 2000.
Do you know if Delphi 5 will handle it?
If yes - what areas will require attention

Thank you very much in advance

I think Delphi/5 will. However, the BDE will eventually cause grief as new
functionality in MSSQL2k isn't suported.

If possible, switch everything to use ADO. If you have D5Enterrpise you own
it, else you will have to get a copy for your version.

Yup. If you can afford to get off of BDE, do it. I have one remaining BDE
app and the reason it works well with MS SQL2K is that almost all the SQL is
in stored procedures and views. So the engine handles everything before BDE
gets a chance to mangle it.

Anyway, the main thing you have to watch out for when upgrading is that the
";1" in TStoredProc.StoredProcName property does not work when you move out
of version 6.5. So you will have to remove them if you use them.

I cancelled five messages like this. This is spamming, and it's
against the rules, which you should read here:
