RE: SQL vs native access (was: Record name the same as the filename)

Excellent point Booth!

I think he was either:
I)  curious
II)  hoping the tests would justify his view point

Your point is made, Rob. My point would be: why was he assigned the task 
of
running the tests? Was his supervisor trying to get this employee to
understand why he will be replaced by an Indian programmer if he doesn't 
get
crackin'?

Joe I don't see how giving examples would help make my point in any way,
shape, or form.
 
Ok, let's say converting from a CHAIN to a SELECT INTO shaved Y seconds
off.
or converting from a SETLL, READ to a CURSOR/FETCH shaved X seconds off
 
However this person decided to stay with the native access anyway. At
which point (X,Y), on which operation, does it become significant enough
to explain that people will stick with what they are familiar with?
