The setup instructions Win2000, showed signs of tightened rules for installing DLLs. The new rules were synchronised with the design-time assemblies of the Microsoft Visual Studio 8 C++ compiler, which is used for compiling the Firebird good news is that the installers in this version do include Slackware support.

This is by design, incidentally, and in that sense it’s not really wrong — it just doesn’t give you what you want. possibilities! In almost every thinkable situation, such use of NULL literals is a sign of poor SQL design and will lead to NULL results where you meant to get true or false. In that sense the earlier, more FIRST.
