 INTERBASE DEVELOPER SUPPORT
InterBase Express (IBX) Download Page

InterBase Express (IBX) is a set of data access components that provide a means of building applications with Borland Delphi 5 and C++Builder 5 which can access, administer, monitor, and run the InterBase Services on InterBase databases.

Though many IBX components are similar to the Delphi data access component in name, they do not use the Borland Database Engine (BDE).

There is no simple migration from BDE to IBX applications. Generally, you must replace the BDE components with the comparable IBX components, and then recompile your applications. However the speed you gain, along with the access you get to the powerful InterBase features make migration well worth your time.
