That's maybe because you are using TBDE descendants? In IBO, setting a
boolean field from a datatype is a snap.
Call me a show stopper if you want, but I wonder how can one make all people
agree on what's a boolean field. In a programming language, so simple. In a
database, it can be a char, an smallint, etc. Maybe we need to ask Diane in
the Mers list about the proposed SQL implementation, if such recommendation
exists.
