Thanks for the comments, but I had done all the conversion of the SQL to
dialect 3 already - turns out to something far more subtle ...
Looks like it is a bug in the ISQL/IB parser. The line number reported is
misleading - it is actually the line number -1 of the next DML statement.
The script file has a single space after the terminating ";" on each
statement - and this causes this error to be thrown - remove the space and
all works okay. (as to why I have no idea, @%$$ frustrating )!!!! By the way
this only happens if you have two DDL statements present - a single
statement does not cause the error - and the last DML statement can have a
trailing space ...
(Any idea's anybody?)
Thanks
Myles.

Quite sure its not something a little further down? Line 14 char -1 would
indicate its not the first block....
