Roy Lambert NLH Associates ![]() | I've just being doing some tests of this and I must say I'm pretty impressed by the speed. Two things
1. Can we have a time taken indicator on the SQL page for the database - I'd prefer something better than me going 1 and 2 and 3 2. More importantly WITH DATA ignores any ORDER BY clause in the select statement. Is this what its meant to do? If so I need to create indices (oh the pain of no scripts ![]() Roy Lambert |

However, as long as EDB support the ORDER BY clause as an extention to the <query expression>, I think it should have the expected effect. Ole Willy Tuv |

Basically I'd like to see the time taken for any sql statement of any of the pages in EDBMan. I appreciate that for a lot of operations the time taken will be a big fat 0, but on the other occasions it could be useful. Roy Lambert |

I kept in the ORDER BY support because it does have one "effect" - the index created for the ORDER BY can be used for optimizing filters/queries on the created table. It's just not visible at all. -- Tim Young Elevate Software www.elevatesoft.com |

<< Which other keywords aren't supported eg DISTINCT, GROUP BY? >> All of them are supported. The only distinction is that indexes are used in EDB for sorting query result sets, and the ORDER BY index simply isn't visible in the created table. Therefore, it can't be selected as the active index, etc. when the table is later opened/viewed. -- Tim Young Elevate Software www.elevatesoft.com |
