Thanks Milan:

I'll be developing with Microsoft's Visual Studio 2008 Pro, and will move to the new VS 2010 at some point.

This will be a GUI desktop application, and will follow my habit of offering a single user version that uses embedded Firebird server and a multi-user offering that uses multi-user Firebird running as a service.

IBPP is the only Firebird specific library I'm using.
