Hi all
I found that on my 64 bit i5, 64 bit Win7 that there were both 32 and 64 bit installations of FireBird. So I uninstalled the 32 bit. Now I cannot load the database via ODBC, it raises the error:
Connectivity error: [ODBC Firebird Driver]Unable to connect to data source: library 'gds32.dll' failed to load
The situation is as follows:
64 bit i5 processor
64 bit Win7 OS
32 bit Visual FoxPro app
Thus I have to use 32 bit FireBird ODBC driver
64 bit FireBird server
Am I limited to using 32 bit FireBird on this machine? Or 32 bit ODBC can talk with 64 bit FireBird?
Please advise
Thanks and regards
