dbexpress driver can not connect from D2010 data explorer

I am using the dbexpress driver in Delphi2010.

Everything works as excepted, except the Test Connection button in th data explorer. The dbexpress settings form the driver and conenctions file from dbexpress are shown as expected.

I copied the Devart.DbxSda.DriverLoader.dll to the bin directory of Delphi 2010.

When i press the Test Connection button for a DevArt driver connection, I get the following error:

Borland.Data.EClassRegistryError: Devart.DbxSda.DriverLoader.TCRDynalinkDriverLoader class cannot be found in Devart.DbxSda.DriverLoader,Version=1.0.0.5001,Culture=neutral,PublicKeyToken=09af7300eec23701

I have 2 questions:
- does devart dbexpress driver have any support for data explorer?
- if so is there an other dll that needs to be installed or copied

Hello,

For the time being dbExpress driver for SQL Server does not support Data Explorer of RAD Studio 2010, because Data Explorer is a .NET application, and dbExpress driver for SQL Server does not support .NET under RAD Studio 2010.
