Delphi will offer exactly the same local SQL functions as VdB when using 
the same build of BDE.

If you are using SQL Links to connect to a third party remote server you 
should get the subset of SQL supported by the remote engine.  SQL links 
and the comms layer will simply wrap your SQL commands to something 
(TCP/IP packets or whatever) it can send to the server, attach the 
correct address, and send it.
