Abstraction is certainly one reason to use an ORM, but I think it's a bad idea to stick strictly with your ORM if it prevents you from using your database inefficiently. In this case, the difference in efficiency and amount of code required is pretty big. You can wrap this SQL up in a method that will hide it from the calling code. - Perrin ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Take Surveys. Earn Cash.
