Thanks for your response. However,

(a) If I got the same "Access violation" error running two different
clients, it probably has something to do with the database;

(b) It might well not be the database's "fault," but since I don't
know how to fix it, that doesn't help me much. I considered posting
to an IBOConsole list, but I can't find one; I'm hoping someone on
this list has seen the same issue before;

(c) Since the databases I am developing are for my own purposes and
not for sale, I am not about to spend $100+ for a client tool.
(Besides the fact that it seems a little odd generally to choose an
open source database and then go with a proprietary admin tool,
although I can see where one might do that.)
