Ok, here it comes:

I have a dutch version of Cach�, version 5.0.2.607.1, running on WinXP. I'll
translate everything between [].

I have an object (or, equivalently) table called Employee, with a Property
called Firstname. I start SQL Manager, and choose Object -> Uitvoeren Query
[Run Query]

Now I type the query "SELECT IsNull(Firstname,'No First Name') FROM
Employee", and choose Query Uitvoeren... [Run Query...].

Now I see a message box saying:

Uitvoeren Query - Kan geen dynamisch query-object voor dit statment maken.
[Can not make dynamic query-object for this statement] ERROR #5821: Cannot
instantiate query: 'SQLCODE = -400' (Hints omitted)

The syntax is correct, and if I run "SELECT Firstname FROM Employee", I get
all first names of employees.

So there is a problem with IsNull (and functions like it). I think the word
dynamic is important, but I don't know what the problem is. It's not SQL
Manager's problem, because it does not work in Studie either (I get an empty
result set).

So the question is: What is a dynamic query object, and what can I do to use
IsNull?

Thanks for helping...

Joost
