Your front page says this capability is already in the product, but I can't find any reference to it in the documentation. I have version 6.7.14 for D2007.
Can you point to examples of use?
Do I need an upgrade?

Looking at the SDAC 7.0 download for Delphi 2007.
It's an executable. Before running it I need to know:
Will it overwrite or disable the full licensed version I already have?
I am running Win7/64 bit. Will the 6 column limit apply? If so, I cannot run a meaningful test.
I intend to swap in the SDAC 7.0 Beta into an existing large application and see what the direct connection does for me, with the ability to swap it out again for production. If I can't do that safely I'll just have to wait until 7.0 goes on general release.

The Beta versions is trial, therefore there will be a limitation by 6 fields for 64-bit applications. Installation of this version will remove the old SDAC version.
