D daniweb78 Member Jul 16, 2020 #1 Hello everyone. I am a beginner and I recently discovered B4A. I need to create an app that connects to a Firebird database residing in a Windows PC. I read about Jaybird but I don't know how to install it and how to proceed. First of all I would like to be able to connect and maybe view the data of a table. then slowly go on. Can you give me some advice?

Erel B4X founder Staff member Licensed User Longtime User Jul 16, 2020 #2 I recommend to start with a test project in B4J which uses jSQL to connect to the local Firebird database. There are many threads about Firebird: https://www.b4x.com/android/forum/pages/results/?query=firebird Once it is working, the next step is to run jRDC2 on the PC and connect to it from the B4A client. Tip: any new B4A project should be based on B4XPages. Everything will be simpler. Upvote 0
