[DUG] BDS2006 or Rad 2007 & the web

There is not much official documentation as yet.  I'm using DBX to 
access the data, so learning about that would be a good start (there are 
plenty of movies and documentation on this). 

>> I'm using DBX <<
I'm sorry, I don't think I know what this is. Or it could be I'm so tired
from trying to find solutions to my needs. Would you help me with this as
well?
Thanks Alister
Charlie



You can get firebird from http://firebirdsql.org and there is lots of
documentation there as well 
(not Delphi related however).
