Hi,
first for all, read release notes from FB 1.5.x, 2.0.x and 2.1.x before trying to update. Theres something more than dialect on moving from one to another.

did you backuped-restored it BEFORE extracted the sql? I think you
should... but someone could correct me?

thats not a strange error, AFAIK, just a error that FB 1.5 don't showed you. Lets see the following select

select FIELD from xxxxx
inner join YYYY on YYYY.FIELD =xxxxx.FIELD

the question is, what field FIELD you wanna select? the one from xxxxx or from YYYY. FB don't know what table. you should correct it specifying what table it is. like:

select xxxxx.FIELD from xxxxx
inner join YYYY on YYYY.FIELD =xxxxx.FIELD

or yet,

select t1.FIELD from xxxxx t1
inner join YYYY t2 on t2.FIELD =t1.FIELD

This can ocurrs also in updates, inserts, or any statment.

WTH,
