Subject Re: Field type for Binary Short Strings?
Author semprelliure
Thanks again, Olivier.
I'm trying with plain SQL commands just for convenience, it's my
first approach.
Now I'll try with my favourite interface, IB Objects. Maybe is
yours, also? If I have in trouble, sure I'll issue a question to the
IBO list.
Anyway, if someone knows a workaround through SQL syntax, please say
something.
Thanks,
Hugo.
