Develop with the full server version and deploy with embedded; otherwise you will not be able to run your executable from the Delphi IDE. Use the InterBase code examples from Delphi 5, replacing the VCL components with their non-BDE equivalent. Zeos should be fine to work with for playing purposes; or you can download a trial version of the IBObjects components - which is a full working set that produces executables with nag screens.

This list is not about Delphi (or any other application interfaces): each of these has its own specialised list.
