No it was not copied from Linux, but after second thought I'm pretty
sure they were running it on Firebird 1.0 and I have the 1.5 installed on my
machine. But should this be a problem for me? I mean isn't 1.5 fully
compatible with 1.0?
Anyway, I will try to install 1.0 on another machine (I do not want to
create any kind of conflict between 1.0 and 1.5 on my machine) and try
opening the file.

I assume this has nothing to do with corruption...

Thanks again
Vahan

Was it copied from Linux?

What version of Firebird were the running?
