Post #196,228 by boxley 2/24/05 3:07:16 PM Reply	of course there is always room for sql queries it has its places and usage, however c with nested SQL is the OLD answer before perl, scripting and etc came along. Is there a strict sql program that they have in place that you could outstrip their preformance using other tools to rub his nose in it? making everything sql is empire building and should be squashed immediately. thanx, bill Any opinions expressed by me are mine alone, posted from my home computer, on my own time as a free american and do not reflect the opinions of any person or company that I have had professional relations with in the past 48 years. meep questions, help?

But when they are done moving stuff to the database, he will then need a boatload of people to maintain what they have. His highpriced VB/SQL/Server buddy create a semi-working app with several hundred cut&paste stored procedures. All that did almost the same thing, with tiny differences. While I'm told the language CAN be done better, his key people obviously aren't the ones doing it that way.
