Hi,

I am not sure if there is any "easy" way to do this.  In windows, Delphi
will let you use any activeX control, and also you can use ODBC data
sources either using borland's BDE database engine system or "DBExpress"
drivers that support ODBC.  Another way to read/write access tables
would be to build you own library that did it.

Since Unix doesn't have MS Access to use with ODBC, BDE isn't available,
and activeX contols are windows specific, this poses somewhat of a
problem.
