not a strictly lazarus question but still... i wasnt able to create a table (trying both firebird 2.5 and 3.0rc2 and lazarus 1.6) where some fields were of bigint type. error message was very strange, like that data type is not supported... the strange thing was that before that i was able to use bigints without any hassle.
since i was in a hurry, i just changed the fields into char(10) and then had no problems whatsoever. still, i would like to know what i was doing wrong.
thanks
