We have had no major problems using SQL in WDSCi 7.0 or RDi 7.5. We use SQL all the time. We use Tables and Views in queries. We also write and use a lot of UDFs - no dramas at all. I would certainly suggest you check your PTF levels and download the trial version of RDi 7.5. My opinion? Forget WDSCi (at any level) - retrieving, installing and using WDSCi V7.0 is a waste of time for you if you are going V7.5 anyway) Just get the latest RDi trial version. What will WDSCi 7.0 tell you if it doesn't work with that? You still don't know if it will work with RDi 7.5 - the one you will be using into the future.

Just chiming in with Larry here. I use WDSC every day as my primary IDE, although I use RDi and RDi-SOA at home. I do a lot of embedded SQL (every new report uses a standard SQL skeleton) and I don't ever have a problem.

Even if you continue to have issues with your SQL, I believe RDi 7.5 is a fabulous IDE, and sssssooooo much faster than WDSCi 7.0. you will definitely see productivity gains.

Agreed here as well. RDi is definitely a tangible improvement over WDSC in features and especially performance.
