Hope there are no problem if i reproduce here the blog content :) :
"Well, in this article I'm going do describe step-by-step how-to add
Firebird .NET Data Provider into Visual Studio 2005. So I assume, I have
downloaded and installed the provider (be sure that's for .NET2).
1. You have to download the VS SDK (*not* the Framework SDK). It's
available on MSDN.
It's not the standard part of installation.
2. Check whether (installation should add them in) the provider
assemblies are in GAC (you can use the gacutil util from provider
directory or the Framework GUI). You have to focus to
FirebirdSql.Data.FirebirdClient (gacutil.exe /l
FirebirdSql.Data.FirebirdClient).
3. Locate your machine.config and add into <configuration> ->
<configSections>
add <section name="firebirdsql.data.firebirdclient"
type="System.Data.Common.DbProviderConfigurationHandler,
System.Data, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral,
PublicKeyToken={PublicKeyToken of your file}" />.
4. Into <system.data> -> <DbProviderFactories> add <add
name="FirebirdClient Data Provider"
invariant="FirebirdSql.Data.FirebirdClient" description=".Net
Framework Data Provider for Firebird"
type="FirebirdSql.Data.FirebirdClient.FirebirdClientFactory,
FirebirdSql.Data.FirebirdClient, Version=2.0.0.0, Culture=neutral,
PublicKeyToken={PublicKeyToken of your file}" />.
5. Then open the FirebirdDDEXProvider.reg file and replace the %Path%
variable with the correct path for your installation, i.e.:
C:\Program Files\FirebirdClient , and load it into the registry
(also check whether all entries were successfuly added).
*But!* If you're adding the path to the reg file you have input
C:\\Program Files\\FirebirdClient (backslash the backslashes).
Now you can startup the VS and try to add database to Database Explorer
toolbox. If you will follow these steps exactly, you have 99,9% chance
for success. :)"
