If looked around a bit and it seems i have to do a 
kinterbasdb.init(type_conv=100). But this gives another error:

File "C:\Python24\lib\site-packages\kinterbasdb\__init__.py", line 343, 
in init
     fakeFunc.func_code = realFunc.func_code
ValueError: Date() requires a code object with 0 free vars, not 1

I installd the mx Data time module and the fixedpoint module but that 
doesn't help. I still get the same error.
Does anybody know what's wrong?

Thanks,
Benedict
