We have developed a stand-alone application using Builder5 Pro, which
currently uses an Microsoft Access database which we are communicating to
via a third party DAO set of components.

We are looking to move across to a 2-tiered client/server aplication
approach using either MySQL or PostgresSQL (or whatever that one is), and we
hear that we need to use ADO to communicate to these databases.

Seeing as we only have Builder5pro which didn't come with ADOexpress, and
because Borland no longer sell ADOexpress, we wondering what other ADO
components there are that are reliable that we could use.

Can someone also confirm if ADO is required or if there are other components
that can also work?

Thanks

Daniel

I use the mysql++ c-api in BCB6 for transfering data from and into a
MySQL database. Works great for me.

Does this only come with BCB6 or can I get it seperately?

I'm currently using BCB5 and we aren't planning on moving forward for
another few months yet and therefore I need to see what options i have
within BCB5 at the moment.

Thanks
