    My work uses a program called "TCS SeriesFive", it's client connects to a Borland database server I guess, it connects using BDE... we've been tasked to open TCS's database tables and see what we can do... we pay $.5mil a year for this software and we want to make custom tools, my question is connecting to this DB... can I do it with ADO and an ODBC, if im not mistaken; BDE is just Borland's equiv. to ADO/DAO correct?

    ANY information ASAP would be a tremendous help...

    from what I read here (http://www.inprise.com/bde/), it appears that the BDE is a common API for accessing different data sources, similar to what ODBC and OLEDB are doing (as far as the data access API standards idea is concerned)
