Can I use TOPAZ with the Delphi standard data aware components?
Yes, you can, providing that you compile with Delphi 3 or later compiler. You might be wondering if this will result in the BDE being dragged into your application. The answer is that starting with Delphi 3, Borland unlinked the connection between the BDE and Delphi’s own data aware controls (as part of standard open dataset architecture). Therefore, you can use any Delphi 3 (or later) data aware component with TOPAZ, and still not link any of the BDE. However, the BDE *will* be linked in if you drop a Delphi data access component, like TTable.
