Subject Re: when statement error codes
Author aalliana
Thanks Ann for the answer.

I'm not sure what you mean by "interface you are using".

Let me clarify my doubt a little more:

I'm using the procedure/trigger language.

In a procedure, the following block:

when any do begin
...
end

catches the error and/or exceptions.

I'd like to access the parameters using the same procedure language.

Is that possible?

I'm using Firebird 2.1.4

thanks in advance

Alejandro
