New In other words
you mean that there are different data sources that are accessed via one query? One Sybase server, one Oracle server, one MS SQL Server, and one MySQL server, but "SELECT * FROM EMPLOYEES WHERE INACTIVE = FALSE" will pull results from all of them and be contained in one big recordset.

Or am I reading it wrong?
