Hello Martin,

But it does support that syntax.  Type CREATE DATABASE FREDNURK into ISQL
(i.e., STRSQL) and watch what happens.

DROP DATABASE FREDNURK works too.

It also works from a source file processed by RUNSQLSTM.  This is at 440
but I'm sure that support has been around for ages.

Regards,
Simon Coulter.
