Thanks for the info, Helen.

I'm working on a database documentation tool.
It'll extract database meta-information (domains, tables, fields,
procedures, etc.)
and let's you add a comment and additional meta-info (e.g. relations) to each
entity and then creates a XML document or a set of linked HTML documents.

So the name from RDB$TYPE_NAMES should be enough, IMHO.
If every possible name has a correlating entry, that is.

And btw., do you happen to know any tool that does a similar thing to what I've
just described?

Bye,
Daniel
