Hi Ajay,

dbExpress itself (the components) do not have royalties in any way...
However, different drivers may require you to buy a license. The Upscene
dbExpress drive isn't free - you need to buy a license. This license grants
you unlimited deployment rights - see the website for details.

Delphi. I took a look at the various open source and other OLEDB and ODBC
drivers. The ODBC driver at the IBPHONEIX website doesn't seem to be good.
And the other open source OLDEB driver also don't seem to be good .I had
already written the Code for SQL server and need to port the code for
Firebird, that is the reason i was looking for OLEDB providers to keep my
code as generic as possible . But it looks like IBX and IBO seem to be the
only way to access it . Any one has come accross the situation where they
want the code to access for more than one databases and how they did it. The
reason behind this is that since this application is a product we want to
support a wide range of databases. Ajay
