Hi again Guido,
There are 2 events here. Interbase events, and delphi events. I think this
is where the confusion is coming from.
IB events are generated in SP's or Triggers on the server by the SQL:
POST_EVENT 'EVENTNAME';
This would normally be in the After Insert trigger.

For your Client application to catch this, you need to have an IB_EVENTS
component (along with connection etc), which has its "Events" property set
to EVENTNAME.

You then set the IB_EVENTS OnEventAlert (DELPHI event) to Execute whatever
code you need.
(Usually query the server for the change that took place)

I have a simple app which listens for an IB Event and displays a dialog when
it happens, please email me if you would like it.

Regards
John
