Actually I am not looking for any foolproof security.
Even if I can make access difficult my purpose is served.

Please note that if user copies App1.Gdb to another machine
where he has setup FireBird without my assistance then he
should not be able to access App1.Gdb easily.

I will not expect him to check the system tables etc.

Regards
Allan
