As a java developer i'm suprised of the numerous ways to get a DB Connection
in the Delphi world.

What I want is a Windows client written in Delphi that is able to
connect to a ASE 11.x Sybase database.

And that should be done in the fastest way possible.

First of all Delphi Ent. claims to allow a native connection to Sybse
Databases (ASE). So what is "native"? Does is mean ODBC, DBE, SQL Links
or Open Client? For me Open Client is the only real native Library, but
I can't find any support for it in the Delphi Enterprise IDE.

What is exactly the relationship of ODBC, SQL Links and BDE.

Thank you for helping me with these questions!

Regards,
Mounir
