Why is my list of network databases blank?

 As (I hope) you can see from the accompanying screenshot, when I try to exchange data from my local installation of Timeslips Premium to the main database on the server, the list of server databases is blank.  Nevertheless, there are exactly three entries in the list, and the middle one is the one that is correct.  How do I get the list to actually display the names of the three databases?  I really have no idea what is going on here.  It seems very strange.

    Not sure how/why/what you are trying to do here. If your machine has access to the database across the network, there is no need to exchange with it, just access it and put your data right into it.

    I 'think' what is happening is that you have two separate installs with two instances of the Firebird Server.  One that hosts the main database and the one on your machine that is hosting the local.  You need to have just the one Firebird Server.

    If you can provide more details about your setup and why you are exchanging we can try to help.
