Hmmm, do you want to know what the problem is? That I failed to put a smile
emoticon. I wasn't upset.
If some person has the knowledge to handle an answer on how to go from IB
to XYZ, no problem. I should have wrote instead that the suggested topic of
the list was from anything to IB, but not mandatory. Sorry, at least I
should be consistent with myself: I use MsSql and ObjectStore's little
cousing engine, among others, so I'm not negating the idea of portability.
Also, maybe it would be a good selling point for people to know that if the
database becomes a monster, they can migrate with relative ease to Oracle.

I map IB-Conversions, IB-Architect and Firebird-devel to the same folder...
so I had to use colors to distinguish them. Since I'm no longer subscribed
to the third list, I only have to tell the difference between two.

No, please, grovelling no, never write that, even with tongue in cheek!
(Even if you wanted to make me to smile.) I've seen enough minions this
year.
