ADO components are present in the Delphi 2009 Professional Version? - delphi

ADO components are present in the Delphi 2009 Professional Version? Currently I'm using delphi 5 professional version which does not include the ADO components.
thanks for help.

Yes, the Ado components are present in All the versions of delphi 2009.
Check the feature matrix of delphi 2009 and look for
dbGO™ for ADO connectivity for Win32 (MDAC 2.8)

RxLib for Delphi 10.4 with FireDAC?

I wish to migrate a huge Delphi 5 code using RXlib BDE Data-Aware controls to latest Delphi 10.4 Sydney with FireDAC. I wonder if there anywhere someone who already went through it and migrated RXlib version using BDE to FireDAC?

How compatible is Chau Chee Yang's dbExpress and XE2 Enterprise dbExpress for Firebird?

I use Delphi 2010 Professional which did not come with the dbExpress driver for Firebird. If I start using the Firebird dbExpress driver written by Chau Chee Yang and then later upgrade to XE?? Enterprise (which comes with the Firebird dbExpress driver) will the code just work?
It lists support for delphi XE2 in the 34 version changelog
"Support Delphi XE2"
So it should work also you could ask on the dbxfirebird group for more info https://groups.google.com/forum/?fromgroups#!forum/dbxfirebird

Informix Native Driver for Delphi XE2 Professional?

please does exist some native driver for Informix databases for Delphi XE2 Professional ?
What are you using?
I know that does exist IDAC, now opensource, but these sources are for pre-Unicode Delphi versions and is not easy to change it (at least for me).
Thank you very much.
I also used IDAC before, but with upgrading to XE2 I changed to AnyDAC.

Anyone ported Snoop Component Suite version 3.0 to Delphi 2010 ? (ie. Unicode issues)

Has anyone ported "Snoop Component Suite version 3.0" by http://www.netlab.co.kr
To Delphi 2010 ?
Its a great WinPCap library. Just doesn't work on Delphi 2010 (unicode)
Thanks
I don't see the Snoop components suite at this link. Just a couple of links to other pages.
You could try the free components from Magenta Systems. The web site says it's compatible with Delphi 6 - 2010.

Delphi incremental changes? From D7 to D2009

Is there a website or documentation that details the changes made from each version?
Say, D7 -> D2005 -> D2006 -> D2007 -> D2009
Language features?
DB features?
RTTI?
IDE?
Had to look at Google Cache for a couple of these.
