    I'm pretty familiar with the IBX that comes with D7, but have never used the
    ADO components.

    Have a few questions
    How is explicit transaction control maintained? Through the TADOConnection?
    The book said something about automatic transaction, I don't want that, how
    do I turn if off?

    Second, I don't use data-aware controls. I like to spin my own SQL (select,
    insert, update) and if there is a result set, retrieve that to a TStrings
    container, and from the TStrings populate the controls on my form. I like
    unidirectional cursors and I like to use StoredProcedures. Which ADO
    component would be the most efficient for this type of use? TADOCommand?

    Is there anything here that will duplicate what IBEventAlerter does?

    Thanx for any heads up y'all give
