1. Quite right. It is possible to defend against when writing dynamic SQL, but wow what a hassle. Passing params to sprocs works way better with less effort. 2. So long as we are discussing SQL not MDB, then almost any MDB saved query could be translated to a table UDF. This would enable you to join as many of these as you wish. 3. As both a developer and a DBA, I'm not sure whether I should moan or bitch LOL. -----Original Message----- From: accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com [mailto:accessd-bounces at databaseadvisors.com] On Behalf Of MartyConnelly Sent: December 20, 2005 5:40 AM To: Access Developers discussion and problem solving Subject: Re: [AccessD] Upsize?

Lets say there is 1 table that may be joined to 0 to 5 other tables in various combinations, being 32 possible querydefs. I've always constructed the SQL in code and was very satisfied with the performance. Add another table and you're up to 64 querydefs. >That's ugly. > > > >Ciao >Jürgen Welz >Edmonton, Alberta >jwelz at hotmail.com > > > > > > > >>From: "Michael Maddison" <michael at ddisolutions.com.au> >> >> Hi Jürgen, >> >>If you go with variable parameters check out the 'With Recompile' option. >>It forces a new execution plan each time the procedure is run and >>overcomes SQL's 'parameter sniffing' problem. >> >>cheers >> >>Michael Maddison >> >>DDI Solutions Pty Ltd >>michael at ddisolutions.com.au >>Bus: 0260400620 >>Mob: 0412620497 >>www.ddisolutions.com.au >> >> > > > > -- Marty Connelly Victoria, B.C.
