I put the example code from this thread into
the following script & ran it from iSQL in
a database created under FB2 (ver 2.0.0.12748):

RECREATE TABLE TABLE1 (
col1 integer,
col2 integer);
COMMIT;
EXECUTE BLOCK AS BEGIN
INSERT INTO TABLE1(col1,col2) VALUES(1,2);
INSERT INTO TABLE1(col1,col2) VALUES(3,4);
END;

The output was:
SQL> RECREATE TABLE TABLE1 (
CON> col1 integer,
CON> col2 integer);
SQL> COMMIT;
SQL> EXECUTE BLOCK AS BEGIN
CON> INSERT INTO TABLE1(col1,col2) VALUES(1,2);
Statement failed, SQLCODE = -104
Dynamic SQL Error
-SQL error code = -104
-Unexpected end of command - line 2, column 42
SQL> INSERT INTO TABLE1(col1,col2) VALUES(3,4);
Records affected: 1
SQL> END;
Statement failed, SQLCODE = -104
Dynamic SQL Error
-SQL error code = -104
-Token unknown - line 1, column 1
-END
SQL>

Am I missing something here?
Thanks,
John
