This is one of those loaded questions that I have to answer: "It depends on what you want to do and how well your database is indexed". If you are doing lots of queries where there are existing indexes, the performance can be be sub-second. If you are doing lots of queries where there are no indexes it will be slow as molasses. Tell us more about what you're trying to do and also start doing some real-world experimentation. No better way to learn than to get your feet wet. Regards, Richard Schoen RJS Software Systems Inc.

I've been told that ODBC is a good performer but have my doubts. What's your experience show vs Ivory Tower tests? Thanks in advance,
