32 bit app accessing database updated by 16 bit app

I have a legacy 16 bit Delphi application which updates information in
database. Is it possible for a 32 bit Delphi application running on the same
PC to access the information in the database for display purposes? If so,
are there BDE issues to be aware of, since there would have to be two
versions of the BDE running on the same PC?

You need to set Local Share to true in both versions of the BDE.
