Light-weight database engine for Delphi 1?

I'm looking for a light-weight database engine for Delphi 1 (don't ask, it's a long story). Delphi 1 is 16-bit. The engine should compile into the EXE. SQL would be nice, but not mandatory. Any info would be great. Thanks, Carl

why not check on Delphi Super Pages web site. They use to maintain a complete code and component collections for Delphi 1.

I don't know the current situation though ;)

If you want I have a VBX based DB engine called VSData.

I never used Delphi 1 so I don't know as to how good it was at handling VBX. I have used this db engine as at that time this was the only engine to support storing multimedia files!

A long time ago I used VB/ISAM with Delphi 1. It works well with Delphi 16bit even though it was originally made for VB. It is from Software Source. I think we were using v4.x.

Turbo Power Btree Filer ? IIRC TP's is open source and TP was 16-bit.

Maybe this or the other DBF tool has 16-bit options. However the one I used (TDBF) doesn't afaik.

A 16-bit version of Microsoft Jet should be easy to integrate even with older versions of BDE (ODBC driver).

Otherwise you can use .db files (dBase - xBase), BDE should be able to handle them directly.
