From the developer:
While accessing data, MetaReport uses the ADO (ActiveX Data Objects) and BDE (Borland Database Engine) technologies. If BDE is not installed MetaReport can access the database using only ADO. Powerful designer tool allows you creating complicated reports those can meet almost everyone’s requirements.
