I don't really know. I was guessing this because there is no
CommitUpdate Method for TIBQuery like TQuery has.

BTW, I have an other little question

With TQuery I was doing

MyQuery.Post;
MyQuery.ApplyUpdates;
MyBase.Commit;
MyQuery.CommitUpdates;
MyQuery.Close;

And Now I'm Doing

MyIBquery.Post;
MyIBBase.ApplyUpdates([MyIBQuery]);
MyIBTransaction.CommitRetaining;

I don't like really to do CommitRetaining. I was thinking first that
a simple commit will do it. But I had an error "Transaction already
exists" or something like this, when I tried to do
MyIBTransaction.StartTransaction even if it was the first call to
this Method in my application. I thought that, like in IBAccess, you
have to open a transaction just to read datas. Is it true ? Is my
code with IBquery and IBDatabase correct ?

Thank you

Julien

PS : I know this is not a Delphi group. But I thought that Firebird
Pro's can help me more about those Firebird tricks :)
