I am looking for suggestions for a good local DB for our shareware app.

Further to my suggestion of your using MS Access database, this artcle on
available MS Access data types may help.

The Delphi standard out of the box ADO support is all you require. I would
avoid the OLE Object data type, you can make them work from Delphi but it's
a real PITA!!!
