Thanks for the ideas. I'll keep those good ideas when I expand the API, but I want to focus first on the principles used in the whole GdaSqlBuilder which is to build pieces and identify them using an integer. Obviously you seem to like that way of doing since you already have many ideas of functions to add... Cheers, Vivien
