Note, that to exclude the BDE completely from your project, you
will need to use this set of stub files.  Since the Ace components
were compiled with the full BDE, if you try to use these stub files
instead, you will get a unit version mismatch.

To get it to work, you will need to recompile the ACE source files
with your project.  Obviously, this can only be done with the
registered version, not the trial version.

The DB.PAS, DBCTRLS.PAS and DBTABLES.PAS files should be copied to your
project directory, and added to your project.  When you do a build all 
for your project, this will cause the ACE components to get recompiled
for linking into your project.

You SHOULD NOT REBUILD COMPLIB WITH THESE FILES!!!!

Inside the IDE, you will be using COMPLIB that has the BDE linked in, but 
when you build an EXE, it will create new DCUs to link in, and will leave 
your COMPLIB untouched.

If you are using a version of ACE prior to 1.09, then you may need to copy 
the SOURCE directory to the one that you specified when you installed
the ACE components onto the palette.
