Hi,
 Is there a way to control the IBReplicator via a Delphi app ? I have
IB 7.1 and Delphi 7. I've searched around but came up empty.

 I have a DB app that requires archiving the .GDB file at the end of
the month. The archive DB must still be online. The steps involved are:
	1) Stop adding data to the current DB.
	2) Wait until the REPL_LOG table is empty, signifying all data has
		 been replicated.
	3) Stop the Repl service.
	4) Copy the current DB, giving it an archive name.
	5) Empty the data table in the current DB.

	The Repl service is setup to run every 15 mins. I would like
to change this to 1 sec, restart the Repl service, then wait until
the REPL_LOG empties, then set the back to 15 mins. I can start and
stop IBREPL using the NT API but don't know how to reconfigure the
Repl params programmatically . Where does IBRepl store its Interval value ?
I've monitored the IBReplService.exe file and registry access while
starting, but can't find where it's getting it.
 Is there an easier way to do this ?


	Thanks for any input,
	John
