You should really update Lazarus. With an updated version, you also
don't need the path to libgds anymore. The library is loaded
dynamically.
The difference between the Delphi3 TTable and a query is more then the
select. The TTable creates the SQL-statement, which has the advantage
that it exactly knows what it's doing, so that the TTable is also
updateable.
Nowadays updating tables is done differently. For example SQLdb parses
the supplied query, to see if the query is updateable or not.
