While installing the NexusDB ADO Provider, the installer gives the user the choice to install ECO 2 support into the Delphi 2005 IDE. If you have installed Delphi after the ADO.NET Provider or removed the ECO 2 support from the known assemblies list, you can of course install it manually.
Open Delphi and click the Component menu. Select the Installed .NET Components item
and the according dialog will open. In the dialog look at the Add Components section at the bottom.
Set the Category to "NexusDB" and then press the Select an Assembly button.
