Thanks Keith, I stand corrected. That is what I get for tring to do more than ten things at once. I just think the word (if you can call it that) SQL is being mis-used and or confused. As with the subject of this thread (SQL vs VDB or C/S) shows. SQL can be used in C/S or VDB. How about someone coming up with a good def "Keith" and explanation. We could use a good book on the subject. -- Joe < jyuzamas@wrdiss1.robins.af.mil or jyuzamas@sprynet.com > Keith G.
