Known Issues
WISQL and ISQL both require that your TMP environment variable is set
and points to a valid directory on your machine. If this is not set or
the directory it points to does not exist, WISQL and ISQL may not
work properly.
Accessing InterBase tables via ODBC which contain character fields
which are declared as being longer than 255 characters may not work
properly under some circumstances.
