I believe by default Firebird will refuse to open a database on a
network share. This can be overridden in the firebird.con file.
Property RemoteFileOpenAbility = 1. There is a big warning in the
sample firebird.conf file.

In my rush to get help i didn't realise something very important.
CPTMST001 is the server our database is on, CPTCFS001 is a fileserver
we keep other things on.
Before getting the error we use an OpenFileDialog to open an excel
file, which is then read and imported into our system. The file I was
opening is on the file server CPTCFS001. The error "Unable to complete
network request to host \"CPTCFS001\".\r\nFailed to establish a
connection." could be related to the fact that just previously an
OpenFileDialog was directed to CPTCFS001.
But I'm still clueless as to what is really going on :-(
Thanks again,
Ben
