Subject Re: How to check if Firebird is running ?
Author mariofb123
I am trying to check the DBToggler application in:

http://cvs.sourceforge.net/viewcvs.py/ibfbcoex/

but unfortunately all I get is "Problem Loading page..."
Is there an alternative way to access the above code/application?
Thank you very much for your help.
