Hello Hugo, > Is there a way to determine which version of Firebird is running before > connection to a Database?
>From within your application, you can connect to the Services Manager and then >call isc_service_query(), specifying isc_info_svc_server_version in the >request buffer. This is documented in the IB6 API Guide. Many clients (e.g. FlameRobin) can also give you this information without having to connect to a database first. Or, from the OS command prompt: > fbsvcmgr [hostname:]service_mgr -user <username> -password <password> > -info_server_version This requires Firebird 2.1 or higher on the client machine. Hope this helps, Paul Vinkenoog
