It would help me and a lot of other people the most if you simply supported the ":foo" format for named bind variables. Not only is this format standard in many databases including Oracle, but as far as I know the ANSI/ISO SQL standard also defines this as a standard format. Generally speaking, you should do what the ANSI/ISO SQL 2003 standard says where at all possible. I strongly suggest keeping the $ sigils out of the SQL and leave it to individual language binding interfaces, or the languages themselves, to support such things as that. -- Darren Duncan
