Hi Guys. Well I have decided to take a look at Firbird, but I seem to be having issues finding the 1.5 exe's. Are there any for Win32 yet? etc. I get to this page on sourceforge but it looks like its only sources http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php? group_id=9028&package_id=9104&release_id=216474
can anyone help?
