David,

Thank you for writting the database pooling. I am able to compile it
and abtainning the pooled connection. However, when I use it, it gave
me the following message as soon as I executeQuery("select MyMemo
from Mytable":

java.sql.SQLException: ResourceException:
javax.resource.ResourceException: couldn't start local transaction:
javax.transaction.xa.XAException:
at org.firebirdsql.jdbc.FBStatement.executeQuery
(FBStatement.java:110)

This error happens even though I setAutocommit false.

Your help would be greatly appreciated.
