Hi:

I need to provide an executable to connect to a database through ODBC.
Users insert, delete and update data through some forms. This can be
implemented very easy with C++ Builder Client/Server using some data
controls like TTable, TQuery, TDataSource. I suppose this easy way of
using database is provided by BDE. But my customer does not have any
license of any Borland product. What can i do to preserve the easy way
of programming ? buy a BDE license ? How much it cost ? Install a BDE
dll ? or programs developed with C++ Builder Client/Server carry �some
BDE� and therefore we do not any more tools to connect easy to an ODBC
data source ?

Many thanks in advance.
