Access 2.0 and Delphi 1.0

I would like to connect an existing MSAccess - Table (*.mdb) to an
application I would like to write in delphi. I don't have any experiance
with database's or connecting a database to delphi at all.

Does anyone have a good, easy to understand demo or example or does
anyone know of a good source to get this kind of information ?

Thank you very much.

Re:Access 2.0 and Delphi 1.0


You cannot do this with Delphi 1.0 by itself.  There are several 32-bit
solutions (for Delphi 2 & 3).  Supposedly Titan Access from Reggatta Systems
(www.reggatta.com) has been trying to release a 16-bit solution for over 6
months now, but has not progressed beyond the beta 1 stage.  There is a beta
there that you can download, but I have not had much success.  When I send
emails to them regarding this 16-bit version, I never get any response.  Not
too promising.  Unfortunately, there are not any good 16-bit Delphi
solutions for using Access tables.

You can use ODBC drivers.  I have used these before in 16 bit delphi.
The one I was using was difficult to setup but it can get you out of a
jam.
