[Firebird-net-provider] Re: How to install the provider?

[Dick C. <di...@pl...>]

Hello Dave,

I'm also new to VS.NET.  Can you clarify what you meant by the last 
statement -- "Then, you'll find a few new components in your toolbox..."?

I was able to get the FB.NET provider working properly by manually 
entering it in the References section of my project and typing the 
appropriate code.  But how do I make it appear on my toolbox as you implied?

  Hi,

  The Firebird.NET provider is a .NET provider, not an OLE-DB provider. 
You'll
  have to set a reference to the Firebird assemblies, and use the Firebird
  namespaces. Then, you'll find a few new components in your toolbox...
