Once again your comment does not explain why the Borland documentation for
TADOConnection::OpenSchema says it does not support literal information
because the underlying ADO does not support it, while the MS ADO
documentation for the Connection::OpenSchema clearly states that does
support literal information.

How much clearer can I make this discussion ? I don't mind your not
answering as it appears to be Borland's error and is not your problem, but I
wish that if you answer, you would at least look at what I am saying. No
doubt the Borland doc is just plain wrong, as it so often is, but I just am
asking for you to confirm this also or present me with evidence which shows
that I am wrong and that clarifies the matter.
