(http://www.mengoni.it/downloads.html) or another tool for use with
Firebird. Myself, I only use IB_SQL (www.ibobjects.com), but I do not
administrate any database.

table. I don't know what is wrong, the only thing I can see straight away
is that you are creating a view using SQL-92 (JOIN clause) linking together
one table and another view that has been created using SQL-89 (join through
the where clause) to link five tables. I would recommend changing your
SQL-89 views to SQL-92, but have no idea as to whether there is any problem
in writing an SQL-92 view joining SQL-89 views or not (I know that mixing
SQL-89 and SQL-92 within the same select is discouraged). Maybe it will
help, maybe it won't, gurus should know, but I'm not one of those.
