Unable to open DBase tables in Delphi 2006

[mardaman]

I have a brand new installation of Delphi 2006 on XP Pro (fully patched). I can see the data in dbase III tables in design mode, using BDE or ADO components, but get the following error when I try to 'run' the app using either BDE or ADO:
'unexpected error External Database driver (15877)

I can run the same app in the IDE on a W2K machine fine.
Any help appreciated - it's driving me mad.

I have experienced numerous problems trying manipulate dBase III database tables in newer versions of Delphi to the point of not using the dBase III engine anymore. Have switched to paradox and have had better luck under XP. Sorry I don't have an answer but you might consider changing engines.
