I send an e-mail to ask about it. I hope they answer me. I'll give
you the information when I know it.

If there is not another possibility I'll do it. I had like the
IB_Query. It seems more potent that IBOQuery (for example for
relations master-detail)

The EXPORT component exports GRIDs and Tables, I don't know if it
will be a solution.

Maybe I'll have to create the IBOQuery, simulate an GRID and then do
the EXPORT. I think it's a little difficult for me... I hope I can
do it.

Yes, this is the Web page
