BDE and SP2

[The Firestarter]

Anyone know how to get more than one application to use the BDE at the same
time under XP SP2? I get the error message 'Cannot load driver'.

As an experiment, I uninstalled SP2 and the problem went away. I
re-installed SP2 and it came back.

It works fine on a W2K box so I tried running both apps in compatability
mode for W2K (and 95/98/ME and NT4 as well) but no joy.

Any ideas? Beats me.

Hi Jon,

Have you contacted Borland about this yet? The problem is a probably a
compatibility with SP2 and their engine.
