I migrate this application to FB3 (although that will probably

What is required to get this example to work?
In both FB2.5.6 and FB3 (under Windows) I get:
"Only INSERT commands are accepted in bulk mode"
(Any example that would let me run EXECUTE BLOCK with a

Okay, I'll raise a tracker item for it.

I'm wondering if there might be two issues items
derstand the last
example but the EXECUTE BLOCK example seems wrong.)
ttype_dynamic is not all that useful inside a UDF, because it
