Subject dBase to Interbase
Author mss@smarty.smart.net
I've been having a lot of trouble converting my dBase tables to
Interbase. Is there a good way to do this?

I've been attempting to use the BatchMove component of Delphi 5 but I
receive many errors. For example, here is a typical error:

EDBEngineError

'Invalid table create request.
Metadata update statement is not allowed by the current database SQL
dialect 3
SQL warning code = 301
Date data type is now
General SQL Error
called TIMESTAMP'

or I might receive a similar error when attempting to convert a
different dBase table:

EDBEngineError

'Invalid table create request.
Metadata update statement is not allowed by the current database SQL
dialect 3'

Any ideas? Thanks.
