Good Day All,

  A potential client has seen my MIDAS app and would like me to move it to
MSSQL from DBIV.  I tried to convince him to go interbase, but, since they
already have the license, and that is all they know, I am not going to beat
that horse too much.

  However, I now have the question, should I stick with BDE on the server,
or, learn and use ADOExpress?  I have worked directly with ADO in an MS SQL
env before, and was not inpressed.  I think it had something to do with
being forced to use VC++ (lets not go there).

Any comments, pointers, suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,
Nick
