VB 5.0 vs Delphi 3.0

Paulo Ro?ada #1 / 4	VB 5.0 vs Delphi 3.0 Hi, Can anyone clarify at whar extent is delphi 3.0 faster or not than visual basic, particuraly regarding acces to MS Access databases. I am assuming that VB uses the DAO model and Delphi is using BDE with the native drivers. i.e no ODBS involved. Alex

M #2 / 4	VB 5.0 vs Delphi 3.0 I'm not 100% positive, but I'm about 95% sure that Delphi 3.x goes through ODBC. It does not go through the BDE to get to ODBC. It accesses ODBC natively (You could remove the BDE and still access anything through ODBC).

The speed is O.K., but why do you use Access for Databases...?

Michael D. Lon #4 / 4	VB 5.0 vs Delphi 3.0 Because Access MDB files are simply files. It takes an engine to manipulate them, such as JET. Only someone hampered by lack of experience or bungling management directives would use ODBC against Access for any commercial software. Michael D.
