FlashFiler is the professional, compact, multi-user, client/server database engine for programmers developing applications with all versions of Borland Delphi or C++Builder 3.

Better than the BDE!
FlashFiler is small and easier to deploy than the bulky Borland Database Engine. Just build your application normally, then ship it anywhere along with our royalty-free FlashFiler Server. Single-user applications can even compile FlashFiler right in so there's only one EXE to deliver!

FlashFiler's industrial strength builds on the heritage of B-Tree Filer, our popular database engine for DOS Pascal and C++ users. Like B-Tree Filer, FlashFiler's data is stored in a high-speed, proprietary format. Plus, FlashFiler goes well beyond B-Tree Filer's capabilities to support a rich collection of data types and high-end features.

Perhaps most importantly, FlashFiler is tightly integrated with Delphi and C++Builder so you can use FlashFiler as conveniently as the BDE. FlashFiler's components can be used anywhere you would use TTable or TDataSource. Your data-aware controls seamlessly connect with FlashFiler tables. Plus, you can build presentation quality reports with Crystal Reports using FlashFiler's specially-developed drivers.

Since FlashFiler is written in highly-optimized Delphi code, you do not have to bother with DLL, OCX, or VBX-based solutions. FlashFiler's components are bound with your program so there are no distribution hassles. Simply include FlashFiler Server with your application and that's it!
