If you have BCB5 Ent or BCB6 you may connect with ADO.

1. Add TADOConnection.
2. Set ConnectionString to "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data
Source=c:\test.mdb", change c:\test.mdb to real path.
3. Add TADOTable, set Connection to ADOConnection1,  set CursorLocation =
clUseServer and TableDirect = True
and TableName = ... (place table name here).
4. Set TADOTable Active to True.
5. Add TDataSource and TDBGrid as usual and see results.
