Re: Join Anti-SQL Group
Posted in 1993
Regarding this Anti-SQL group movement... I like SQL. Maybe I think it's great because of the far clunkier systems I have used, but to me it is a fabulous tool. This is not saying there could not be improvements to it. If you have some idea about something to replace it, show us a sample. I'm not about to give up a tool I like for some persons unexplained problems with SQL. If you want something English like and understandable, there are plenty of front end packages around which are intended for that type of use. English is to ambiguous of a language for me to just simply say what I want from my database and expect to get it. I might get something close, but my data is complex enough that I would rather specify exactly what information I need a particular query to return. - Cathy Cathy Kipp ckipp@vth1.vth.colostate.edu Colorado State University Veterinary Teaching Hospital Phone: (303) 226-0240 Fort Collins, CO 80525 Fax: (303) 491-1205
