Subject Re: [firebird-support] Program to detect if FB is installed
Author Zd
Useless human explains to funny programminator:

I need to install a program that uses FB exclusively (please no "It's not a
good idea to use FB exclusively" posts) on different computers at different
companies.

I need a quick way to check if the computer has any other programs installed
which are using FB as a DB backend.

Of course I can look up whether the computer has an FB directory, check for
the fbserver process etc. but I really need a fast way:
Run computer program -> See if ANY version of FB is present.

So does anyone have or know an app for this? You guys could save me time
from having to develop one!

Thanks
