with MS SQL 2000 ? Any comment is appreciate.

How about MySQL Server with Delphi 4 C/S ? Did BDE support MySQL ?

OK, don't use D4. Upgrade to D7, don't use the BDE (use ADO) and..

The BDE SQL Link drivers have been deprecated and the BDE is no longer
being maintained. In addition, The BDE driver for SQL Server uses
Microsoft's DBLIB client library which microsoft has not updated to
support any version of SQL Server after 6.5.

No.

The only way to work with either database with D4 is to use an ODBC
driver. You should upgrade to D7 and use ADO.

Whatever Kevin and Bill said is true, but that doesn't mean that you
can not develop database apps with D4, BDE for MSSQL2000. We do it,
and it works. But for new development, follow their advices.

I confirm...

It depends on the size of you existing appli... and if the user wants to
change his database and OS frequently...
Take care : converting an existing application to ADO can bring some
problems and take time... I encountered serious problems with Oracle,
unresolved up to now (I posted questions on this problem)...

As far as it works with you good old Delphi4 and BDE... why change ?
