Hello,

What I would like to do is the following (in a nutshell) : Depending
if I'm running on a local machine or not, I would like to use BDE's
TTable (if running on a local machine), otherwise use Advantage's
TAdsTable.

How ever, I don't want to use a large amount of IF statements all
through my code to figure out if I'm using a TTable or a TAdsTable.

Is there a way to have the table I'm using (be it a TTable or a
TAdsTable) assigned to a single variable and use it with out having to
figure out what type it is before using it??

Thanks for any help in advance,
Nick
