I'm not on this wavelength at all. :(

Firebird isn't an application development tool, its a relational database
management system. It has an application programming interface. People
write applications through this interface.

About views: if you create a view, then your query tool can select
whatever it likes from that view. For example,
select * from aview
where acolumn = avalue
and bcolumn = bvalue

and such.

Would you please trim your messages?
