I guess you can imagine that you first need to do that before backing up and restoring? > Now, I have restored the database with 2.5, but..

Of course, you still can create an empty Firebird 2.5 based database with a DDL script and then pump your data with a tool from your source into the destination database. -- With regards, Thomas Steinmaurer http://www.upscene.com/ Professional Tools and Services for Firebird FB TraceManager, IB LogManager, Database Health Check, Tuning etc. > > thanks > > -----Ursprüngliche Nachricht----- > Von: firebird-support@yahoogroups.com > [mailto:firebird-support@yahoogroups.com] > Gesendet: Freitag, 8.
