Robert,
There are several changes between the versions in how some SQL statements are handled that makes "blindly" change the engine/dll without expecting some code changes in the v1.5 application very difficult (if you were successful, it would be a fluke).
Rather than try to have the existing app use v2.1, why don't you have your application use v1.5? Replace the v1.5 embedded with a full v1.5 install and off you go.
