As far as I know exactly one SQL-statement can be put into one ODBC-call,
for example an SQLExecDirect. And all complete ODBC-call have to be
separated 
by ';'. But only within definition of dbprocedures/triggers semicolon may be
part of a SQL-statement. No ';' has to be given at the end of normal
SQL-statements.
If you put this semicolon at the end of a SQL-statement, i.e. IN the
ODBC-call
then it is send to the kernel which dislikes such extra signs.

This is a user for holding several of those systemtables,
who should not be used for real users work (creation of tables or something
like this).
