Thank you for mentioning that!

BTW, It seems Firebird is getting more attention after it won the Sourceforge Community Award!

Hi from Colombia...
I have Firebird 2.1 and Delphi 2007 and edit this files: dbxdrivers.ini and dbxconnections.ini.
dbxdrivers.ini have this lines:

DriverPackage=DBXCommonDriver110.bpl
DriverAssemblyLoader=Borland.Data.TDBXDynalinkDriverLoader
DriverAssembly=Borland.Data.DbxCommonDriver,Version=11.0.5000.0,Culture=neutral,PublicKeyToken=a91a7c5705831a4f

GetDriverFunc=getSQLDriverFIREBIRD
LibraryName=dbxfb40.dll
VendorLib=fbclient.dll
Database=database.gdb
RoleName=RoleName
User_Name=sysdba
Password=masterkey
ServerCharSet=
SQLDialect=3
BlobSize=-1
CommitRetain=False
WaitOnLocks=True
ErrorResourceFile=
LocaleCode=0000
Interbase TransIsolation=ReadCommited
Trim Char=False
I have this error:
