I'm just trying to use external tables to import data from other
programs....

I'm working with 2.03 for windows and after create a 2.0 fdb database I'm
tryin using ibexpert to create an external tables using follow instruction:

CREATE TABLE "_CLIFRE01"
EXTERNAL FILE 'C:\ExternalTables\seq-FRE01.csv' (
PROGRESSIVO TPROGRESSIVO /* TPROGRESSIVO = INTEGER */,
RIGAVIDEO TRIGAVIDEO /* TRIGAVIDEO = SMALLINT */);

Naturally in firebird.conf I set

ExternalFileAccess = 'C:\ExternalTables'

And I have restarted the server.

Error returned is: Cannot set database access mode for archive dump
