It seems to me it should be possible to access a firebird server from windows 3.11. We accessed Interbase with windows 3.11 and the connection for at least version 2.0, 2.1 and 2.5 of firebird is about the same. If you can find an old copy of Delphi version 1, 2 or 3 you could write something that accesses firebird. However, it would be difficult to write something in much else since the support libraries would not exist for windows 3.11. Though firebird will not compile on windows 3.11 because of lack of support libraries. Of course the question Mark asked is still relevant, why would you want to access from windows 3.11? Though I admit after much research I succeeded in getting windows 98 and older versions of programs running on a relatively new computer. It was sooooooo fast it was almost beyond belief. However, many web sites complained about the old browser. Ted
