Subject Re: [firebird-support] Re: How to connecto to an embedded Firebird?
Author W O
Thank you Tom, but .... how can I connect to the database?

What would be the connection string?

I had copied all the files in the same folder, and did a lot of different
choices, but still cannot connect.

Well, really I can connect if there is an ODBC driver installed, but using
"embedded" it would be not necesary, right?

Greetings.

Walter.
