I'm wondering...

Is this happening because the keys are populated with integer, whilst, in
IB6, generators are INT64?

As an exploratory exercise, could you drop the database, and change the
domain T_ID in the script from integer to Numeric(18,0) and see whether
this fixes the problem when you recreate the database?

My IB6 server is down at the moment so I can't test it myself. The
tutorial sets itself up correctly in IB 5.6.
