Hello Aaron,

AA> I just reinstalled Firebird to see if that would help address an earlier
AA> problem .. now I cannot even start the employee example database.

AA> In ISQL:
SQL>> connect "C:\Program
SQL>> Files\Firebird\Firebird_1_5\examples\employee.fdb"
CON>> user 'SYSDBA' password 'MASTERKEY';
AA> Statement failed, SQLCODE = -902

AA> Your user name and password are not defined. Ask your database administrator
AA> to set up a Firebird login.

AA> How could sysdba not be defined???
You upper-cased the password - the correct default password is
'masterkey'. And replace double quotes around the DB file name with
single quotes.
