Bypass BDE for MS Access?

Is there anything currently available that will let me work with Access
databases without having to use the BDE?  There are two catches:

        1) I want to keep using InfoPower's data aware controls
        2) The product has to be available now.

Messing with the BDE is sucking up time I don't want to spend.  I don't
have any great feelings for Access; however, my clients like it.  In
essence, I want to use Delphi as an improved Visual Basic (Visual C++?).

Thanks for any responses.

Take a look at Titan Access - a plug-in replacement for the BDE.

I have used Titan Access and Opus DirectAccess.  In my opinion, Opus
DirectAccess is a much better product.

Don't forget to check out ODBCExpress, their product is pretty powerful
too (http://www.odbcexpress.co.za)
