Hi all, is it possible to update a table when the current_date in
rdb$database changes to the next day?
I need to reset a delivery counter to 0 in all the orders on a system.
I can presently do this two ways.
When I print a delivery label I do it via a SP...

Hi, I have a mixed environment of Win64 and Win32 Pcs targeting a Win64

I use Delphi 10.3 for the programs and Firedac for database access
within the programs. All Pcs use the same programs resident on the

Hi I use FB3.04 and Delphi for writing the front-end programs. I had no
problems with FB 2.5 for years, but now I've upgraded I have problems

Thanks Maya, it was a lot more complicated that that. I ended up

and calling a second Create SP for inserting into the GTT, then a third

Hi all, I hope you can help me with this.
I have a customer who scans barcodes to produce delivery notes. There
may be several barcodes per part to produce one line on the delivery
note. The quantities can vary - if there is insufficient raw material or
their customer needs them immediately.
There are a few things missing from your setup.
Try this; there may be other ideas for you too, but this works.
create a new table
CREATE TABLE A_AUTO_TEST (
NEW_FIELD INTEGER NOT NULL,
SOME_DATA CHAR(10)
);
ensure the field you want is the PK
ALTER TABLE A_AUTO_TEST ADD CONSTRAINT
Hi Robert, I guess this is pretty well documented elsewhere on the
Ibphoenix site, but you will face a number of issues, all quite easy to
resolve. In no particular order you need to address:
UDFs they are different and have a suffix .so, not .dll.

select left(:str, position('**' in :str)-1)) from yourtable

the single '*' to e.g. '-' and then you can keep your existing select

Hi Slavek, there are a number of issues you need to resolve before
making a decision. If network performance is an issue then replication
is not the answer - unless you can send the changes back to head office
'out of hours'. This means the different databases will be out of sync
for some
Hi Robert, you can do this easily with a tool such as IBExpert. Just run

Hi, this is really off-topic here but these pointers will help.
IBX components will show with way red lines underneath - everything from
IBDatabase to IBQuery to IBStoredProc.
Use Firedac, it works very well and if you are careful you can change
all your e.g. IBqry1, IBqry2 to FBqry1, FBqry2
Hi, I have a SP that has been running as is for many years on various

This may sound harsh - if they won't pay just $150 then they can't value
their data very much.
Not a helpful answer but it may guide you on future business.

I tried this in a test database before replying.
Changed a domain from 4 to 8 char. This is used by various tables as a
PK and got this error message. I then changed other domains to check and
had no problems (done this many times before but possibly not with a PK,
can't remember)

Another way of doing what you want would be to use SPs instead of Views.
Then if you select * from SP and hide it as below, no-one can see what
you are doing with the data.
This works well and I drop this into every new database I work on. To
repeat the warning though - make sure you have a

Thanks Svein, an ingenious use of distinct and nulls. It worked but not
