Hi Robert,
take a look at the release notes for ibobjects. There have been some
changes in this area for being able to specify different client dll
names. Just do a search for "IB_GetClientLibNameFunc" in:
http://www.ibobjects.com/ReleaseNotes.rtf

Rather than re-assigning the constant, you can now specify a function
that determines what dll name to use.
Also, by the looks of things, by default, the fbclient.dll is attempted
to be loaded first and if it's not found, ibobjects attempts to load
gds32.dll

There's also a "use-at-own-risk" method for unloading and reloading the
dll...but be sure to read the Release Notes!

cheers
Mark
