Hi,

I noticed IBAccess surfaces the actual names for the
indexes and constraints, which is a good thing when one wants to
drop them later on by hand, or document a
design.

However, whereas some of these can be named
interactively upon creation (PK, FK, indices...), other are named
automagically by IB/FB (simple constraints on fields named
INTEG... for instance).

Since you have found how to
identify them in the system tables, it might (should ?) be possible
to offer a choice to rename them. Currently all one can do is create
or delete constraints, not modify them.

Great tool, BTW: I
was used to IBconsole, and you have something more intuitive
here for novice IB/FB users.
