Hi guys
I've spent hours now looking for a way to do this...
There are scripts for Linux/Unix that come with Firebird for adding
Aliases to the aliases.conf file -- but on Windows it seems the only way
to set up an alias is to manually edit the aliases.conf file.
There's got to be a better way. I'd like to make things easy and
PROFESSIONAL for the customer
- I don't want to tell him to "Navigate to your Firebird directory,
usually located at C:\Program Files\Firebird\Firebird_2_1, drag the file
"alises.conf" into "readme.txt", add a line MYALISES = C:\Program
Files\MySoftware\DB.fdb"
--you get the point
Thanks in advance
