I'd start with a test connect option. Just make a connection and report a message box back to yourself. If it helps, here's how I'm connecting. The only variables are sDatabase and sServer, both strings. The sDatabase is a path in the form of 'c:\apps\mobileapp\database.fdb'.
CN = new FbConnection("User=SYSDBA;Password=masterkey;Database=" + sDatabase + ";DataSource=" + sServer + ";Port=3050;Dialect=3;Role=;Connection lifetime=0;" + "Connection timeout=15;Pooling=True;" + "Packet Size=8192;Server Type=0"); I then wrap a call to CN.Open() inside a try-except block and show a message based on CN.State. -----Original Message----- From: Djordje Radovanovic [mailto:softsis...@sbb.rs] Sent: Sunday, December 19, 2010 1:27 AM To: For users and developers of the Firebird .NET providers Subject: Re: [Firebird-net-provider] Is it possible touseFirebird.NETprovider with windows CE Hi, I made small application that access one table on server.
