You can add another -1. We've been through these discussions many times before, so in theory you'd have to add all those votes as well :-) The whole purpose of having bind parameters is that the database can build a query/execution plan without having to know the values you intend to use in the query beforehand. This results in a massive speedup compared to having to reparse and build the query/execution plan for every single combination of parameter values. Another nice side-effect is the prevention of SQL injection attacks due to the fact that SQL commands and values are separated, much like code and data is separated by todays OSes for applications. -- Marc-Andre Lemburg eGenix.com Professional Python Services directly from the Source (#1, Aug 15 2007) >>> Python/Zope Consulting and Support ... http://www.egenix.com/ >>> mxODBC.Zope.Database.Adapter ... http://zope.egenix.com/ >>> mxODBC, mxDateTime, mxTextTools ... http://python.egenix.com/ ________________________________________________________________________ :::: Try mxODBC.Zope.DA for Windows,Linux,Solaris,MacOSX for free ! :::: eGenix.com Software, Skills and Services GmbH Pastor-Loeh-Str.48 D-40764 Langenfeld, Germany.
