James,

I spent too much time chasing identical behavior earlier this week. My issue
was evidentally a data problem.

I used typical trial-and-error techniques: I tried to reproduce it with a
different set of data, and couldn't, so I copied the data to a new column,
etc, etc.

Finally - in my case, which is no doubt different from yours - when I tried to
make a copy of my data into a column with "not null" Firebird gave me an
error - I guess I had managed to embed a null value where I didn't know about
it, and it was screwing up the search.

So the moral is: Check your data before you spend too long pounding on IBO.
