I can connect to an existing Firebird 2.5x or 3.x database using TIBConnection. I leave the PAGE_SIZE parameter and CHARSET, and DIALECT properties blank. The only property that gets a value filled in is the DIALECT property (3). I don't want to specificy a charset or page size in the TIBConnection, in case that will conflict with what settings are actually in the database file. ... or.. maybe I worry too much. Maybe what ever values I put in those settings are ignored by TIBConnection.... Is there a different way to find this stuff out?
Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.
