Hi, Am I correct to assume that using VCL for .NET precludes the use of ADO 
for database interfaces?
If not how do I connect to this as I can only access ADO when Winforms are 
selected.  I am using BDS2006.

You can use ADO in code, but they are not VCL components so cannot be 
dropped on VCL forms or datamodules, nor can they be bound to datasources 
and data-aware VCL controls, you would have to write the code to populate 
non-DB aware VCL cotnrols.
