I'm fairly certain that SQL Server processes top down. Oracle used t o process them bottom up.

So, if possible, for best results place your most restricting clauses LAST and filter out the greatest amount of data. Then the next where clause up from the bottom has the least amount of records possible to compare against and will perform faster.

So say I have a query like this. Select * >From Accounts, Sales Where accounts.address = sales.address And salesdate = #now()# And item = 13882 I would redo the query so that it would get rid of the data it doesn' t need first then do the join at the end. Otherwise it joins those tabl es with all the data, then gets rid of the rows you don't need. Select * >From Accounts, Sales Where salesdate = #now()# And item = 13882 And accounts.address = sales.address Results may vary.

First has nothing to do with CFqueryparam 1) Does where/and clauses ORDER matter? ie select * from table where id = 'xxx' and data1 = 'xxxx' Verses select * from table where data1 = 'xxxx' and id = 'xxx' Does one find the information quicker? (switching the where and the a nd clauses?). Which takes me to my second question. Does the following matter? select * from table where data1 = <cfqueryparam value="#xxxx#" cfsqltype="CF_SQL_VA RCHAR"> and id = 'xxx' Verses select * from table where id = 'xxx' and data1 = <cfqueryparam value="#xxxx#" cfsqltype="CF_SQL_VARC HAR"> (Note the where and the and clause switches placement). Does placement matter?
