🚀 go-pugleaf

I only need to open (ReadOnly) a db table in the C:\ directory.
I dropped a TADOTable on the form with the following properties:

ConnectionString - "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Data
Source=C:\;Extended properties=Paradox 5.x;"
ReadOnly - True
TableDirect - True
TableName - Buyer.db

When I try to set "Active = True", I get the error "[Microsoft][ODBC Driver
Manager] Data Source name not found and no default driver specified."

It seems like the ConnectionString is not being read. I am running BCB5 Pro
on Win2K Pro.

Please help,
Thanks,
David Evennou
