You can use pretty much any database with Delphi standard using the BDE. The BDE natively supports Paradox, DBase, Microsoft Access, Interbase and Foxpro. But the BDE also allows you to use the ODBC, through which you can use almost all database types as long as you have the right ODBC drivers.
Once you can connect to the database, the access is controlled by the database security, which differs enormously between databases.

About the only DB that I've found thus far that requires add ons to access is btrieve. (You can read records with the standard drivers, but cannot edit or write to files without third party drivers/tools)

with delphi 6 enterprise edition, there's a support for mysql database, look at torry site if you don't have delphi 6, you can find some component to access my sql database
