Post in Steve’s Delphi blog:
I was looking at some old Delphi 7 code of mine when I was attempting to get in behind the scenes of Interbase and Firebird tables and fields to learn a little more about them. I came across these little pieces of information I’d like to share.

While it is very good at a couple of things, one of the features that I like is the fact that the entire database is stored in one file. In principle this is not important, but it is pretty clean and can be very useful.
