Thanks Todd, Interestingly, FlameRobin opens it up and shows me its all fine. Everything there, allows me to add to it if needed etc.
However, neither "InterBase/Firebird Development Studio" nor "DeZign for databases v4" come up with anything but "unavailable database" Database Workbench now sees it as a valid database and exposes all tables, domains and generators etc. However, prior to using FlameRobin, it also came up with "unavailable database".
