Re: How to handle different application version.



If you don't get the answer you are looking for here you should try posting
to one of the lists on http://firebird.sourceforge.net/index.php?op=lists

You should be able to detect the DB version and adjust your application
accordingly. This is when a DAL and common GUI become almost necessities
:).
