Thanks To Everybody Who Responded.

I was unaware of the Services API and when running multi-user
called the command line interface gbak.

After learning of the services API, both IBPP's and InterBase, I
made the mistake of trying to recover without first disconnecting from
the database.

Milan Babuskov pointed out my mistake.

I appreciate everybody's effort to assist me.

Thanks
