After most things work, I decided to start with a new program / project ... over time, the memory fades.
Here is the procedure I used: To install Firebird: Visual Studio 2013 -> File -> New -> Project, etc. ---------- then Tools -> Library Package Manager -> Manage NuGet Packages -> search "firebird" -> Firebird ADO.NET Data provider -> Install (button). Resulted in 1) References -> FirebirdSql.Data.FirebirdClient, and 2) FirebirdSql.Data.FirebirdClient.5.8.0 subdir ... with Firebird .dll's. Then added "using FirebirdSql.Data.FirebirdClient". This statement results in a compile error: string stCreateConnectionString = new FbConnectionStringBuilder { Database = stPathFilename, UserID = stUserID, Password = stPassword, ServerType = FbServerType.Embedded, ClientLibrary = stCLIENT_LIBRARY }.ToString(); Does not like "stCLIENT_LIBRARY". What step am I missing?
