Hmm. I am not sure I got you right.
What makes you talk about InterBase?
When I mention the "old client" I talk about Firebird 1.0!

You're right, when I "upgrade" from InterBase to Firebird, I should
upgrade ALL components. And there WAS a time, when we used InterBase.
But in this case, it was just a server-side upgrade from Firebird 1.0
to Firebird 1.5
And I still say, there shouldn't be any confusing error messages,
when I forget to update the client with a new message file.

Or do you think, that there might be some old InterBase stuff on the
client? Might be. I never checked, but will now.
