Yes, as it explains in the install doc, you can't install the
TDataset-compatible data access with personal edition, which comes minus
vcl database support.

You *can* install the native IBO data access and controls, though.

Just skip any packages which won't install. As well as vcl database
access, it will almost certainly barf on the web packages...
