I understand that, but is there a way to make something like #sanitize_sql available for the general public ? Isn't it a useful method ? In my application, I did it another way - I used #count, which ends up calling count_by_sql. The nice thing is that #sanitize_sql was called, so I simply had to provide the parameters in the right format. In that case, maybe it's not such a useful method... Anyway, thanks for the heads up ! -- François Beausoleil http://blog.teksol.info/
