Shortly before determining that Delphi would not meet my long term
needs, I tested a number of Firebird connectivity options under Delphi.
Of the ones I tested, only IBO was able to even complete my test cases,
and it was the fastest. To be fair, I did not test FIB Plus.

Shifting from the BDE/ISAM world is mostly a mindset thing. In the
RDBMS world, you pull back data in one transaction, edit it
independently of the DBMS connection, and submit it back on another
transaction. Concurrency control has to be built into your data and
programming structures, but it is handled very differently (more
abstractly) than what you see in the BDE/ISAM world.
