It's not that complicated at all.

First step is to set up "After" triggers in the database. In every
trigger you should post event with POST_EVENT directive. That is
well documented in Interbase documentation. In your application you
should place IB_Events. In form's OnCreate event you should do
IB_Events.Register (maybe the name of method is not right but code
completion will take care of that). In the IB_Event you can register
up to 16 events (Interbase Limitation). In a IB_Event.OnAlert (or
something like that) you can put TIBOTable.Refresh and that's it.
In form's Close event you put IB_Events.Unregister and everything
should work.

Hope this helps.
