Regarding 32 vs. 64-bit of the ODBC driver: This is only related whether your client application is 32 or 64-bit and has nothing to do if your OS and Firebird server is 32/64-bit. You also need the Firebird client installed. The same applies here for 32 vs. 64-bit. -- With regards, Thomas Steinmaurer (^TS^) Firebird Technology Evangelist http://www.upscene.com/ http://www.firebirdsql.org/en/firebird-foundation/
