Partly the values passed to getTables() defining what are Tables, System tables
etc are not defined in the standard, and also not having access to JBuilder
until recently hampered fixing it.

No, as the system tables in 7.1 differ to 7.0.x, and the queries behind some of
the MetaData methods are different.

Should do as JBuilder4 Enterprise is what I'm using as an IDE now.
