Hello I have to develop a simple database software, and I have downloaded Firebird, which I intended to use for this purpose. I expected a package to be installed in Delphi, but where are the visual components ? How can I create a table ? I hope not just only with SQL commands in a kind of DOS window. I expected a more friendly environment, like the BDE manager coming with Delphi (6 pro for me). What did I miss ? wrong file downloaded ? third party management tools required ? Any link or help will be appreciated. Thanks Denis Back to top pr Guest Posted: Fri Jan 07, 2005 4:16 am    Post subject: Re: Firebird : How ?

Any link or help will be appreciated. FB is the database engine. It does not install into Delphi and so you will not see any new components. What you need to do is download is the right version of IBXpress, available free from the Borland code central site. Do a search on "Overcash" (the author of IBX) and you will get all the versions quickly. Then you install this and you will find two new tabs on your component pallette for data access and server management. I also reommend that you download IB_SQL as a tool similar to the database explorer. You should find links to that on the FB web-site or on the IBO web-site. Make sure you also have all the manuals.
