>I think MySQL is the same

It is not possible to distribute MySQL with my application. My users do not want install it separately. So I must use Firebird or PostgreSQL.

I want that my application runs in Windows 98 also.
This is not possible with PostgreSQL.

So Firebird remains as only solution. Unfortunately, Firebird does not support LIMIT and OFFSET claues is SELECT and logical data type.

So it seems that there is no way .. !?
