There are two IBDAC versions for D2007, one with unicode support, and one without.
Looking at future Delphi upgrades (as D2007 does not offer Unicode support), using the Unicode one would seem sensible, however, curious why there would be 2 versions assuming the one with Unicode would supposedly meet all requirements?
Or is there a 'down-side' to using the Unicode version with D2007?

Unicode version of IBDAC has lower performance than normal non-Unicode version. Unicode version has also some incompatibilities in interface with normal version. For example, some events have WideString parameters. In non-Unicode version these events have String parameters.

Ah, Thanks Plash. I thought there must be some logical reason.
