Description

In this forum, experienced users of Firebird can offer help and advice about using the database. See the download master page for all released versions.

It is a free forum without associations to any company. Its purpose is for people to help other people to identify and solve their own, first-hand problems. Advertising of any sort, including offers of commercial services or employment, is forbidden.

Please do NOT post messages to this list that relate to your testing of Alpha and Beta builds of Firebird. Instructions for reporting problems with these builds are in the release notes.

Questions that pertain to the use of third-party client development tools, e.g. Delphi, Java, PHP, Python, ODBC, .NET, etc., are not welcome. There are dedicated lists for these questions. The firebird-job-board list is available for offering specific Firebird-related work and announcing your availability for such work.

Please visit the Lists and Newsgroups page at the Firebird website to find the list you need and to subscribe.

NOTE that the relationship between Firebird and InterBase is historical only. Please use the Codegear forums for your InterBase questions.
