The only thing here that might be relevant in this list is the way you may have named your converted tables. The name MYTABLE is not the same as "MYTABLE" and neither is the same as "MyTable", "mytable" or any other quoted mixed case name. In standard SQL, defining objects with double-quoted names is significant and some db tools actually do this by default, especially when converting from non-standards-compliant database systems that potentially have undesirable characters in object names.

The rest is off-topic. Please take the question to the IBProvider forum, which is here:
