FINALLY FOUND how to do it !!!!!!!
upgrade to update2 of delphi8 at 
http://bdn.borland.com/article/0,1410,31971,00.html

do what they say deleting applicationsettings.xml

try opening a simple access db
also with access put admin as user name as there are some security
settings default... and yes you ll see connection successful !!!!
what a relief!
also you ll get compilation error just delete the files mention on the
readme of the update.
now let s see what we can do in asp.net !!!!!!!!
