Hi Bob, If you don't mind doing that, I'd really appreciate it. Nothing I seem to be trying to install at the moment seems to be working. As with Phil, mine is from a Plone install, but I have got other versions of Python elsewhere, (I think there's even an old Zope standalone instance still lurking somewhere, altho I don't think it can run) just to confuse matters. Anyway, my Zope is even older - 2.6.1, so hopefully it'll be compatible. Thanks very much again for your help.

Hi Phil & Ashley,
I also have kinterbasedbDA working on Windows. It is with an older version of Zope (2.6.4). The DA version is 1.1.1.1. The kinterbasdb version is 3.0.1. It uses a dll called _kinterbasedb.dll, instead of a .pyd. I don't remember the exact installation process anymore, but I think I just grabbed it from another working site. If you like, I could zip it up and send it to you.
The site uses blobs (all sub_type text) in many places, so maybe older/other versions don't support this as well.

Hi Ashley,
Can't help you on the blob front...

I've had trouble installing kinterbase (it complains about LDAP..?), so at the moment I use gvib. I've pencilled in quite a bit of time today to try to get kinterbase installed. Unfortunately I'm on Windows, which I'm guessing contributes to the installation problems!
...but I can confirm that KIinterbaseDA works nicely on Windows - I've been happily using it for some time, and haven't had any issues at all (BTW, I don't use LDAP and KInterbaseDA has never mentioned it!). The only problem I had at install time was getting my head around the distinction between the Python part and the Zope DA part.
