That did it!
I originally downloaded the zip file with Netscape Navigator and the name
of the zip had "html" on the end. Can't figure that out. I used
Firebird .6.0 to download and the zip worked fine.

Am wondering why Firebird .6.1 needs additional dlls while version .6.0
didn't.

Thanks for your help.
