Actually, you don't *have to* add it to the machine.config. Adding it to machine.config just gives you "global" access to it (i.e. from any application). If you only have one application, you can just add it to your application's local app.config: <configuration> <system.data> <DbProviderFactories> <add name="Firebird Data Provider" invariant="FirebirdSql.Data.FirebirdClient" description=".Net Framework Data Provider for Firebird" type="..."/> </DbProviderFactories> </system.data> </configuration> That has the added benefit of not requiring admin privileges to install as well :-) Dean. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
