Is it possible to dirty-read uncommitted data in Firebird?? (I don't
think it is, but someone might prove me wrong!)

Why do I want to do this mad thing??? Well, it's sometimes useful in
triggers etc, and it might help work around some inconsistencies
caused by the way unique indexes work - ie they can 'see' other
clashing uncommitted values, even though thouse changes arn't visible
any other way.

Thanks,

John
