Daniel,
Not sure if this answers your question but I've had situations where I needed a way to get column details and table ddl within our application. We ended up creating a stored procedure that would return that information. The following linked helped me with understanding what needed to be done in order to create that stored procedure. https://www.alberton.info/firebird_sql_meta_info.html HTH, Edward From: firebird-support@yahoogroups.com <firebird-support@yahoogroups.com> Sent: Thursday, March 22, 2018 7:53 PM To: firebird-support@yahoogroups.com Subject: [firebird-support] Show Columns Using some system table queries, is there a view or stored procedure that can, in "full", replicate the output of "show columns from table" available from other servers? Ideally this would be a "drop in" alternative to the "show columns" sql statement that returns the same data in the same structure. There are a few examples I can draw from, including firebirdwebadmin, but I don't want to reinvent it if I don't have to. -- Daniel
