Subject Re: [firebird-support] Gbak errors

Tanks Ann and Ivan for the answer. Yes, I already think in a datapump
approach. The bad thing is that I have 350 tables in this database and
datapump is hard-working because FKs issue. The good thing is that
NOTACARGA have no records on this database. So, nothing will be lost. (I
hope).

Firebird have some tool to export/import data easily??
