[V4RB] Is current Valentina version ready for RB 5.5

[Stan Busk]

Hi,

To give more details, following query works on Mac OS X and Mac OS 9, 
but not on Windows XP (it returns NIL):

aCursor = inDatabase.SQLselect("Select * from Preferences where 
PrefEntry_Name='"+inKey+"'", kV_Server, kV_NoLocks, kV_Random)

This same query works fine on Windows XP if I compile the same app with 
RB5.2.4. Why this query returns NIL only on Windows XP when the app is 
compiled with RB5.5? After 2 hours and with many different databases it 
never returns anything else than NIL. Go back to RB5.2.4 and it 
works... It is clear there is a problem here.
