Intent was really to persuade you to not continue in this direction. Did 
Crystal Reports stopped support BDE? If not, you could connect to BDE tables 
directly, without datasets. Or connect to DBF/Paradox files with Jet OLEDB 
provider (there may be problems with update Paradox tables, but in read-only 
mode this may work).

If you still want to continue with creating recordset wrapper for TDataSet 
(in this case through special OLEDB provider), look at:

However it could take much more time and efforts than you expect.
