Hi,

which Delphi version do you use?
I assume you are using a standard TDatabase component, correct?
The TDatabase has not only a DataBaseName, but also an AliasName.
If you are using the BDE you can see the aliases on your system in the
BDEAdmin.
There you have the aliases with their definitions (type, default
driver, enable BCD, path). You can create your aliases "by hand" in
the BDEAdmin or programmatically (see TSession.AddAlias or
TSession.AddStandardAlias).

regards

Oliver
