IBO (4.3.A) and Interbase (open source 6.0.2.0) with Delphi 5 . Converting some apps from Paradox to IB using IBO.

1. In one app I want to automatically back up the database at 3AM. I have a process working within the app which starts and waits for a gbak (backup and restore) batch job to run and complete. With the 'old' Paradox database, all files were closed, backed up and re-opened so everything was up to date. Is this something I need to be concerned about with IBO and Interbase? If I set the IBO database connection to false before the backup will that 'close' the gdb??

2. The Paradox app used dbiSaveChanges after dataset posts. Is this a concern with IBO, Interbase? Does the default IBO transaction management take care of this? (Not yet using explicit transaction control).

Thanks.
