Dear IB friends,

I see this discussion taking off in the direction of "what's the best way to
connect to Interbase from Delphi" and I would like to know what opinions are
out there on the use of the IB Express components shipped with Delphi.

IBObjects often receives good reviews, but are IB Express (apparently based
upon IBO) any better, equivalent, or worse?

Having already started using IB Express components is it worth having a look
at others?

I use BCB4 and so we are cousins (in VCL terms:). I highly
recommend Jason Warthon's IBObjects to migrate any application
from the BDE. Take a look at http://www.ibobjects.com

Good luck,
