When should one use SQL/RPG?

Hi everybody!
I've been told that in some cases SQL is more efficient that RPG and
vice versa. However, I did not get any clear answer on that so I turn
to you out there and ask the same thing. When is embedded SQL
a better choice than RPG and when should one use RPG instead?

I've done embedded (prepared) SQL statements and fancy it because it's
easy to read and understand, some of my colleagues have an other opinion
though and their answer is more or less that RPG is always better. It is from
my point of view not an answer that is convincing me enough that it is the case.

Any general guidelines? Anything to say about compiler issues?

Thanx in advance,

Mikael Salo
