Hi, Ann.
so a standard compliant system would reject your update. Firebird evaluates
constraints before the action, not after.
Is there a reason for this?
I think that decition was made for a reason, but I don't see it.
Without a reason you would not violate the standard, would you?
you.
I agree, but where can I get it for that price???

Steffen
