No additional description…

 function ibec_CreateDatabase(DatabaseType : integer; DatabaseProps : string) : variant; 

ibec_Database attempts to create a new database using the specified properties and, if successful, returns a handle of the connection to the database just created. Otherwise it returns NULL and raises an exception.
