There has been a thread on this. Sefan from IS offered a solution with
messing around with the SWDEPENDANT.INI of IS. Do a search at dejanews.

Using DAO 3.0 is default configuration that BDE set at begin.
Try to use following code :

var
  Cursor: HDBICur;
  ConfigDesc: CFGDesc;
begin
	Check(DbiOpenCfgInfoList(nil, dbiREADWRITE, cfgPERSISTENT,
		PChar('\DRIVERS\MSACCESS\INIT'), Cursor));
	try
  	while DbiGetNextRecord(Cursor, dbiNOLOCK, @ConfigDesc, nil) = 0 do
			with ConfigDesc do
			begin
				OemToChar(szValue, szValue);
				if (AnsiCompareText(szNodeName, 'DLL32') = 0) and
					 (AnsiCompareText(szValue, 'IDDAO32.DLL') = 0) then
				begin
					StrPCopy(szValue, 'IDDA3532.DLL');
					CharToOem(szValue, szValue);
					Check(DbiModifyRecord(Cursor, @ConfigDesc, true));
					Break;
				end;
			end;
		finally
			DbiCloseCursor(Cursor);
		end;

After this you must restart program.
