Default Delphi + Firebird backup restore

Greetings all

I am using Firebird 2.5.

I have an application written in Delphi XE2 which is just a basic database maintenance app.

All it does is backs up and restores the database.

To do this i use the standard IBBackup and IBRestore that come with Delphi.

This has all worked great up until i tried to move this app up to Delphi XE2, now when ever I try and connect (IIBackup.ServiceStart i get an exception saying cannot attach to services manager.

I have looked on Embarcaderos site and they basically say I shouldnt be using those components ofr Firebird databases, however I know them and I am comfortable working with them, is there any sort of a work around that anyone knows of?

Thanks in advance!

Regards

Donovan
