I have Firebird WI-V2.5.0.25920 Firebird 2.5 Release Candidate 2 installed on a Windows 2008 Server. I have the same installed on my local workstation and I can connect to a database and create a Connection and all seems to work okay.

I am able to connect to the Firebird database on the Server from my Local machine with FlameRobin.

When I attempt to create a Connection in VS2010 (Trial ... waiting for purchased version to arrive), I get the error "Index was outside the bounds of the array." The following are my settings in the Add Connection Dialog Box:

Data source: Firebird Data Source (.NET Framework Data Provider for Firebird)

Data Source: HOOPLEXPRESSSVR
Data Source Port: 3050
Dialect: 3
Charset:
Database: HOOPLEXPRESSSVR:D:\Glsa1FirebirdTestDatabase\GLSA1.FDB
User: SYSDBA
Password: masterkey
Role:

Can anyone educate me as to what I am doing wrong? I have exhausted Mr. Trial and Mr. Error and cannot get this to work. *** HELP!!! ***

Thanks in advance
