Hello dear Helen:

> Oh, correct! sorry, a senior moment.
Is ok, don't worry.

Excellent news for me !!! I believe that i am approaching which i need.

You know, in my file "installation_scripted.txt", does not include those commands, i swear to you. I am download and using the version 2.0.0.12748-0-Win32 of Firebird (This version will include these commands?).

But ... is not working yet. I modified the command line like that (adding the command /TASK to the end):

Run Firebird-2.0.0.12748-0-Win32.exe /SP- /SILENT /NOCPL /COPYFBCLIENT /NOCANCEL /DIR="C:\Program Files\Firebird\Firebird_2_0" /TASK="UseGuardianTask,UseApplicationTask,!UseServiceTask, AutoStartTask,!InstallCPLAppletTask,CopyFbClientToSysTask, CopyFbClientAsGds32Task"

I test and the Firebird continues installed like service.

I believe that I must have the information bad to mark or to unmark to the radio button in which the firebird will be executed.

Your notes some incorrect in my command line? I am going to continue with the tests.

Thanks for the help that you offer me.

Then my question is: What command line (additional to the commands /SP- /SILENT, etc) is needed so that Firebird is executed like " Application" or " Service"
