That is what I thought just wanted to confirm. >Not sure I understand what you mean by the above. Are you asking whether >there is a list of available syntax for InterBase for users who do not >currently have InterBase? I ask because if you have InterBase installed, >you have the documentation of the available SQL syntax. It's in the online >help. I found it. I didn't do enough research / searching to find the above. Wow it's quite a list compared to VDB's local command set. I'm very happy to know that when time allows I can do some serious SQL stuff and get a feel for what I'm up against if someone ever says we need a database server with a of course a client/server app. Thanks Greg Hill
