Hmmm.
Sorry, but there could 101 reasons why a five-year-old app written for
interbase will "need work" for Firebird 1.5. So you should start by
establishing that you can actually connect to the database *at all*.

I guess the best place to begin will be to ask where you installed the
Firebird 1.5 client libraries. If you don't know what I'm talking about,
you had better grab the release notes via the ibphoenix website
(www.ibphoenix.com) There's a link about one-third-way down the home page.
