If they are using the TIBSQL component to execute their INSERT
statements, then it would be practically the same as accessing the API
directly.

Is it possible to view the code? If you want, you could send it to me
privately, but please send the code in text format since I don't have
VB. Also, which ADO/OLE DB driver did you use before? Have you tried
others? i.e. ZStyle Group OLE DB Firebrid driver
( http://zstyle.dp.ua/eng/iboledb_prod.htm ).

Why RC5 and not the official version?
