[Firebird-odbc-devel] FB ODBC for Servers 1.5.x on 64-Bit

[André K. C. <Kna...@be...>]

Hello!  Excuse me, please, if this is a stupid request; I am a bit out
of practice with installing ODBC.

For  legacy  reasons,  we  still need to support one installation of a
Firebird 1.5.x server.

While I am in general reluctant to have 64-Bit OS, now I have some CAD
workstations  where  the  advantages  outweigh the disadvantages, so I
need to deal with it.

Is the following installation scheme correct/good?
-  ODBC driver 2.0.0.151_x64
-  using an "fbclient.dll" from a 2.5. 64-Bit server installation
to access a 32-Bit 1.5.x FB server?

In a test install I managed to install the 1.0.2.0070 driver using the
"fbclient.dll"  from  1.5.6  server and could connect perfectly, but I
also  need  to  configer  DSNs using the ODBCAD32.exe in \System32 not
only that in \SysWoW62


Thanks in advance!
  

mit freundlichen Grüßen,
