First use Query-components then use double "" parenthes around tablename in
SQL-Statement
Static statements in query-component should look alike '   select * from
"a:b:c:d"   '
or in code
void __fastcall TForm1::Button1Click(TObject *Sender)
{
  ADOQuery1->Close();
  ADOQuery1->SQL->Clear();
  ADOQuery1->SQL->Add("select  * from \"a:b:c:d\" ");
  ADOQuery1->Open();
}
