Joseph,
The official documentation for the status_vector is pretty awful. However,
with Delphi, you won't access the status_vector in your own code, it will
be encapsulated in the data access components you use. As a starting
point, look up the Delphi help for the DBIError procedure and follow links.

As ib-support is not a Delphi support list, may I suggest the following:

1. You join one of the borland.public.delphi database support newsgroups
on the Borland news server (news://forums.inprise.com). This will be
especially useful if you are attempting to use the native VCL data access
components and/or you are new to database programming with Delphi.

2. If you are using one of the direct-to-API data access options with
Delphi, join the support forum for the one you are using:
for IB Objects: join at http://www.yahoogroups.com/community/ibobjects page.
for FIBPlus: Both English and Russian newsgroups at
news://new.netcom.kharkov.ua
for IBX: borland.public.interbase.interbasexpress NG on the Inprise news
server.

3. Feel free to help yourself to the Tech Info papers at
http://www.ibobjects.com/TechInfo.html. There is a paper there on the
subject you are asking about and it contains examples.

4. There is a "RDBMS-generic" support list, owned by some TeamB people,
for newbie Delphi database developers, to which you can subscribe
directly. You *won't* get any Firebird/IB-specific answers there but it is
watched by Delphi database specialists:
mailto:delphi-db-request@...?subject=subscribe
