Martin, which version of BDE? If you did not do too many "native driver" specific things, you can change the alias to use ODBC instead of the native Interbase topology.
I know many cases where this works very fine. I can personally confirm this works with ODBC driver 2.00.1.152 on Firebird 1.5.x servers, and I know some people who changed from native Interbase to Firebird 2.1 and 2.5 without problems. Maybe it is worth a try? Along with each and every ODBC DSN you could use a separate copy of fbclient.dll. > Thanks for your answer.
