>>I don't think this is unexpected behaviour It is not only unexpected, it is completely retarded. All ODBC/JDBC functions are designed so the database can be connected, then the SQL statement be compiled, then data retrieved row by row, as needed. Even dBase, Clipper, Foxpro worked this way.
>>- you just need to examine what you actually require from the query Well, I made a request to get only the record Id, it take "only" 6 seconds, then I read again each record with the data I need in the loop. I am creating an index on words found in memo fields, and I need to loop on all records in the table. I'm doing this once for all on my development server, I don't care if it takes hours, but 10 min, just to create the query, it looked like infinity to me. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Adobe® ColdFusion® 8 software 8 is the most important and dramatic release to date Get the Free Trial http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;207172674;29440083;f Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/message.cfm/messageid:320268 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-talk/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4
