Please tell us the wording you want - or even better - make a component
that displays a form similar to the About... button of IB_WISQL.

does no comparison with ODBC/IBX, but is reasonably fast if run on the
server (I think it transferred 4000-8000 records a second for short
records). It isn't specifically tuned for speed (should have used a
TIB_DSQL rather than a TIB_Cursor for the insert query and I guess
AsVariant isn't the quickest way to reference fields (but it was very quick
to write ;=)), but is nice and simple to use (all you need is the program,
two similar databases with tables in both and data in one of the
databases). I guess I could translate this program to English (I've heard
rumours that not all of you speak Norwegian) and make it available (just
need to get Aage's permission) or send it to Jason or whoever for
tuning/advertising if it is of interest.
