The BDE is not recommended for new projects now, which implies you are going
in the right direction.
dbExpress is lightweight, but has one way cursors. This makes it good it
for loading ClientDataSets, but not for using the dbExpress datasets
directly. If you are using CDSs and there is a driver for your database,
this is the way to go.
ADO is fully featured and great for the Microsoft databases SQL Server and
Access. It is also a reasonable option if you want to use ODBC.
To complicate matters I see ADO has been dropped in D8 (see other threads in
this newsgroup)
Good luck
Simon
