Hi Ivan,

I tryed to use gbak with "-ig" option, but it doesn't works too, and
I receive the message:

gbak: gbak version WI-V1.5.0.4306 Firebird 1.5
gbak: ERROR: I/O error for file "C:\FREESUN.GDB"
gbak: ERROR: Error while trying to read from file
gbak: ERROR: Final do arquivo alcanþado. (portuguese message -
"End of file found")

I don't know what to do, and the client don't have backup... :o(
There is some utilities that could fix it like InterbaseRecovery and
IBFirstAID, but it's a little expensive and I'm not sure if they will
work...

Any Ideas about?

Thanks...
