Helen;

I did connect the IB_Connection. The first time I tried, I got an
error: "raised exception...class EIB_ISCERROR...arithmetic exception,
numeric overflow or string truncation."

The following code came up as flagged:

if RExcept then
raise EIB_ISCError.CreateISC( Sender,
tmpText,
errcode,
error_messages,
error_codes,
SQLCODE,
sql_messages,
sql_text );

I tried manually connecting the database, etc, to no avail. I tried
executing the script file that was attached to the IB_Connection and
got another error: "Invalid create, connect or drop database syntax".

Because I am so new to IB_Objects and to Interbase, I don't know how
to track the problem down -- and it's a little difficult to learn if
you can't get Part 1 of the tutorial to work!

I'd really appreciate some guidance on this one,

Thanks,
