I think you should try connecting using ado as I have read (somewhere) that
BDE (D5) struggles with SQL7. I have not tried and haven't used the ado
components so cannot help further.

Subject: [DUG]: SQL Server 7


Hi all,
I need to connect to an SQL server(7)database. First time for me.
Delphi 5 pro.

What is the best method? 
I have ODBC98 components. These seem quite slow.
The BDE doesn't seem to connect while SQL Server is running. Keeps telling
me the file is in use, or the parameter is incorrect.

Dave.
