Thanks - my thoughts, perhaps, was if someone with experience on BDE
could give some light here :-) - I'm not a BDE expert myself; that's why
I'm looking for help.
BDE is some kind of "obscure" technology - it needs some special
drivers, and I honestly don't know if it will work with pure ODBC. Even
with Oracle, I had trouble because I've to install those software in
certain sequence otherwise drivers are not added to Windows registry (I
hate it).
I appreciate your insights and your time.
Regards,
Edson
