      TO BTRIEVE(R) AND PERVASIVE.SQL(R) DATABASES

                F O R   D E L P H I (TM)
                    for Delphi 2009

INTRODUCTION:

Titan is a high performance database interface
interface for Code Gear's Delphi and C++ Builder
development tools. This release provides access to
Btrieve(tm) and Pervasive.SQL(tm) databasses.
This file provides late-breaking news and
information on Titan that could not be included
in the manual.


TABLE OF CONTENTS:

This document includes the following:

* What's New
* Pricing & Upgrades
* Requirements
* Installation Notes
* Maintenance
* Feedback
* Final Comments


WHAT'S NEW in VERSION E:

* This version fixes a bug with Titan
  compiled resources.
  
* This version fixes a bug with the Locate
  function and string comparison.     

* This version fixes a problem with the TableName
  property and a bug in the installer.

* As you probably know, all String types in
  Delphi 2009 are now Wide Strings and
  Char types are Wide Chars.  Titan components
  use String types, but internally Titan uses
  the old strings (now AnsiString).  This is
  the same approach Codegear uses for the BDE
  interface.

* The manual and help files have not been updated
  for this release yet.

* Titan will not support
  using the TtbQuery with Pervasive SQL
  2000.  We have no plans to support this
  component with Pervasive SQL 2000 at this
  time.  ODBC is Pervasive Software's
  preferred interface (which is why they
  dropped their native API)


PRICING & UPGRADES:

This product is priced like all other Titan
engines and is $395 for the full product,
including source code.

You can upgrade your registered version to this
latest version for $129 USD. See our web site
at http://www.reggatta.com for details.


REQUIREMENTS:

To use this product you MUST have:

* Codegear Delphi Rad Studio 2009
* Pervasive.SQL(tm)

Please note that Titan does NOT ship with the
Btrieve engine, Scalable SQL, or Pervasive.SQL.
These products can be obtained from Pervasive
Software directly.  Pervasive can be reached
through their web site at 'www.pervasive.com'.
They do have a free trial version available at the
time this was written.

In order to use Titan's Query component, you'll
need either Scalable SQL, or Pervasive.SQL 7.0, as
these products provide the SQL processing.  Titan
will work without these products being present,
but any attempts to use the Query component will
raise an error.


* DDF Builder/Maker/etc.:

Titan still requires DDF's, even when using the DDF
Compiler utility.  You may want to have a DDF
maintenance utility to update your DDF files.  If
you are using Pervasive.SQL, it comes with a DDF
maintenance utility called DDF Ease.



TEST DRIVE USERS:

If this version is a Titan Test Drive version,
then the product is fully functional except that
your Codegear tool must be running when your
compiled applications are run. Please note that it
is in violation of the Titan license agreement to
use a Test drive version for anything other than
product evaluation.



INSTALLATION NOTES:

See the Installation notes in the manual
or the help file for details on Titan
installation.



FEEDBACK & PROBLEM REPORTING:

Please feel free to use our new bug tracking
system on our web site.  Be sure to search
the system to see if anyone else has already
reported your problem.  If not, fill out a
report, and we'll work with you to get it
resolved.

You can also send email to:
  Support@Reggatta.Com


FINAL COMMENTS:

The Titan license agreement states that you need one
copy of Titan for each developer using the product.
If you have multiple developers sharing one version
of Titan, you should contact Reggatta Systems to obtain
the correct number of licenses.  We don't want to have
to impose some sort of copy protection, and we want
to continue to provide you with a quality product.
