Hi, Neil...I think out conversations are crossing...(reminds me of
why I hated chat rooms... :oP)
Anyway, the code I was referring to was in the original post, not
any post referencing joins...
<cfquery name="your_query">
SELECT *
FROM dates_table,
events_table
WHERE dates_table.EventID = events_table.EventID
</cfquery>
I guess from what Andrew was saying, it would skip a step that
would be necessary by an SQL server to translate it into a join?
But, my question concerning it being "bad code" was, really, how
much slower for probably a small amount of data would this
code be?
(And I was wondering, too, why there would even be a separate
"dates" table in a relational database...if this is a calendar, I would
have put the dates of an event in the event table itself...???)

As noted, it is non-standard.

Why is it bad code? Is it slower to process?

Michael,
You really need to learn inner joins, sorry but that is bad sql code without
it.
