I have to admit that I've not used this product, however, there is a 14
day free trial offered so you could give it a try and see if it meets
your needs. Possible trialling against a copy database as opposed to
your production one!

One thing I notice though is the supported versions of Firebird:

"Windows 2000, XP, Vista, 7 (both 32 and 64 bit versions) FireBird 2.1
and 2.5 (with guaranteed support for upcoming FireBird versions, for
example 3.0)."

It appears that your particular version of Firebird (or Windows) is not
supported. From work, I know that there are a few differences between
Windows 2000 and 2008 which affects some of the products I have to use
(Oracle for example).

HTH


Cheers,
Norm.
