Thanks Christoph:

I tried that.

I installed the files as directed in the release
notes.

Microsoft Visual C++ inserts a leading underscore
in exported symbols, and expects the same from DLLs
it uses.

The DLLs in Firebird-1.5.0.4290_embed_win32.zip
export symbols without the leading underscore. The
linker can't find them.

I've asked in the win32 newsgroup. I now believe
there is no way for MSVC to link to those DLLs. If
you know of a way I'm interested.

Thanks
Larry
