Hmmm... looks like TDBF doesn't have any way to load my tables without
writing yet another program. And dBase tables? I think I will check out
SQLite first. I picked on MySQL by recommendation from some folks telling me
how it was a mature db with all of the features I was used to from working
with Oracle. It was certainly easier to set up than FireBird -- and better
documented.

I suppose also that I could write all of the insert/delete/edit code, but I
didn't have to do that in Delphi 10 years ago. The DbNavigator just worked
with no additional code at all.
