In the documentation is an article that explains everything in detail what you have to do: Migrate AnyDAC to FireDAC . In short, there is a tool 'refind' that comes with the installer of XE7 and does the conversion for all the 'AD'-components to 'FD'-components. I did this for several programs, and it works really good, almost no manual work has to be done.
