When you posted your question earlier, the SQL string you gave was:

'Select RPL$IND_NME from RPL_$IND'

The correction I offered was not "use lower case" but "spell the name of
the table correctly". Perhaps your app still has the table name misspelled?

I don't know. Before, I ran the query from IB_SQL, which uses a
TIB_Cursor. This time, I set up a trivial application consisting of an
ib_connection and an ib_query with exactly the same SQL. In the query
editor, it prepares and outputs data, exactly as expected.

What data access class are you using?

Can you paste the exact SQL text you are using in your app?
