Hello,

We are currently using Delphi 4.0 and C++Builder 4.0. 
In Delphi4.0 we have written an 'Application Server' (Remote datamodules) which connects to an (Interbase) database and a Client Application which connects to the Application Server through a DCOMConnection. 
In C++Builder4 we have some communication-programs which also connect to the database through a DCOMConnection. Of course this is done by MIDAS.

We want to upgrade to Delphi 6 because of the new features, dbExpress, extra features connecting to an Interbase 6 database etc. This means converting the Application Server to Delphi 6.0, but that seems not to be the problem. Our question is:
can we still use the C++Builder4 programs to connect to the new Delphi 6.0 Application Server? We ask this because Delphi 6 uses DataSnap and C++Builder4 uses Midas2!

Please help me with this!
