Re: [firebird-support] Re: Moving from FB 1.5x to 2.5x Yes, ODS 11 (introduced with FB 2) doesn't has this "problem" anymore, so you can use database file with ODS >= 11 either with FB 32 or 64bits, but with ODS < 11, you can't.

Maybe you could make your app do a backup (trough services api) using fbembedded 1.5 32bits DLL, and restore it with  fbembedded 2.5 32/64bits DLL.

Carlos:

Thank you for the response and that makes sense in what we are seeing.

If we go from 32 bit embedded to 64 bit embedded, will that mean the database will have to be updated before the new program can connect to it?

Thank you,
