I learned CF and SQL at the same time -- in fact, I learned SQL in order to
do CF.

My boss -- who had done SQL for a lot longer than he'd done CF -- responded
to my inquiry about cfinsert like this:

I don't know what the hell kind of code it produces, so I'll just write my
own, thank you very much.  At least that way, when it doesn't do what it
should, I can fix it.

I certainly agree that with something as easy to learn (or at least look up)
as SQL, control is worth far more than ease of use.  And, of course, for the
kinds of SQL calls you do day in and day out, you can always save snippets.
You know I did!
