Hi Tom,

Thanks for the info.  This is more of a CF question, but the CF-Flex 
connection should afford a little bit of room here.  Does CF support 
what is called, "distributed partitioned views" like SQL Server?  
This allows you to create several small databases with the same 
structure that can be viewed as a single master database if 
desired.  This is an essential feature for me.  By segregating 
customer data into separate databases, the performance, by not 
having to weed through the entire database, is dramatically 
increased.  In addition, for top level functionality, all of the 
customer databases can be queried as one.  The reason that I ask, is 
that several of my master tables can have multi-million records.  
Add to that a couple joins of these tables and the server has the 
potential to crawl.  If CF has this feature, I will definitely 
consider switching; due to its tight integration with Flex.

Thanks,
Tim Hoff
