It is not failing, because it is not happening.

The dataset is in read only state because you did not make it live. There
are two ways to do that:

1) (for this sort of simple, one-table query) is to set RequestLive true
or
2) is to set custom SQL properties (which you don't need here)


No, the problem is that you are not using the Insert method of the dataset
in any way that could work.
1) you do not have RequestLive true.
2) you are mishandling the InsertSQL property (as I already explained)

I did look at the code. :-/

If you are interested, I have uploaded the correct implementation as
freitas.zip.

Notice also that I ripped out all those Params from the ib_connection and
used the Server, Path and Protocol properties instead. That is just to
encourage you into good habits. :-)
