Vendor's Description (from Readme files, web site, etc.):

The Btrieve component is an encapsulation of Btrieve Technologies database engine for Windows 95. It was designed for the use of existing Btrieve files that didn't fit the more modern use of Btrieve where a DFD file could be created describing the field positions within the database.and thus allowing ODBC (or other 3rd party components) access to the tables. TBtr encapsulates most raw Btrieve calls as well as adding a few nice ways of setting up the component using existing Btrieve tables. A reasonable knowledge of Btrieve is assumed. TBtr has been tested using Btrieve 6.15 (32 bit version) running on Windows '95.

BDE Alternatives Guide Comments:

NOTE: Since Btrieve has a Client/Server option, in theory this component could be used for C/S development.

Version 1.1 add the ability to do streaming to a BTrieve file.
