Don't be confused, you are not sharing any connections - you're not even
sharing a license, really. You are using the license to it's full. Each
connection operates to the exclusion or other users. The license is server
based, not client based. Your app, though, may well be writtent using the
BDE. Now that's going to have to change for you to move up to IB7 anyway.
The license installed into ib4.3 will not be able to be installed against
the IB7 server. They are lost to IB4.2.
