Can anyone point me in the direction of a good Delphi tutorial that deals with connections to a seperate SQL server?

Hi.
Realistically, you can use ADO for any type of DB connection (as far as I'm aware) and it's only the ConnectionString property that has to be changed to suit. Do a Google search for delphi ADO tutorials - it's very simple (relative to what you want, of course) - and just change the ConnectionString to suit your SQL Server.
I've coded applications that use Access, Paradox, Oracle, SQL Server, DataFlex, just to name a few, and they all work the same. That's the beauty of generic DB objects.
If you have any specific questions about this topic, just ask.
Good luck,
John.
