Problem: Gets ** QLI error: expected left parenthesis, encountered "file" ** error after CREATE TABLE EXTERNAL FILE statement within QLI. Solution: The information in this article applies to: * InterBase 3.x * InterBase 4.x QLI doesn't support the EXTERNAL FILE option of the CREATE TABLE statement. The same statement works fine in WISQL and ISQL.
