Your suggestion for back converting down to 1.5 worked like a champ. The hardest part of the whole effort was getting all the various FB versions installed and running at the right times but with a little perseverance that was accomplished as well.

To all the Firebird newbies out there - be sure to pick up a copy of Helen Borrie's "The Firebird Book", a well written comprehensive tool worth 10 times its cost.

Cheers !
