Startup / Shutdown settings
Run Locally
RunLocally
When you use Firebird from CD/DVD, DWebPro automatically copies
some files to the user's file system to enable Firebird to work correctly.
Select the Run Locally option to avoid this
copy process. Note that you may safely select the Run Locally option only when you run DWebPro from a hard drive or other writable
media. It can be useful to select the Run Locally option during the development phase.
