Hello,

I have application tha uses Firebird database on remote server. When I copy
fbclient.dll and gds32.dll (from Firebird distribution) into application
folder I get an error "InterBase library gds32.dll not found in the path.
Please install InterBase to use this functionality". When I delete that
files and copy only gds32.dll (from Interbase distribution) file, the
application is working.

Where is the problem? Client computer is running Windows 98.

Your problem seems to be with your application, and is off-topic for
this group. The error message you list comes, I believe, from IBX.
Since you are not using InterBase it's off-topic here. If you are using
IBX, you can ask your question in
borland.public.delphi.database.interbaseexpress. If not, choose an
appropriate group based on the components you are using.

Martin,

When you did the Firebird installation, did you ask that the
installation generate its own gds32.dll? It should generate one that
tells Interbase that it is a version 6.x of the gds32.dll and it should
run "legacy" apps OK.

Try the Firebird forums on Yahoo groups.
