Hello!

I want to connect to a firebird DB via ODBC using the fbclient.dll (in Excel).

While the 32 Bit version works fine, I'm not finding any information about how to get the x64 version of the fbclient.dll. (for x64 Office) 

Where can I download or how do I extract the file from the installation data?

Thank you very much.
Jens

You need to download the 64-bit Firebird installer, and then use the
client installation option. Also, you'll need to install the 64-bit ODBC
driver.

It's easier than that: You can also download the 64-bit Zip kit and extract the fbclient.dll from there.
