I strongly agree with Chipp - of course I have some interest in databases
with Valentina. An application development environment really has to be able to do everything, yet it cannot be good at everything. By storing data in a
database, you can leverage capabilities that offer greater protection,
speed, implementation options and sophistication specific to the storage of data. This has little to do with the actual development tool in particular -
xCode, Visual Studio, Revolution, or whatever.

Yes indeed. I do this as a matter of course in Delphi, but I guess I was curious how far one could push the stack/card paradigm (no pun intended <g>).

Isolating you data from your GUI means you have much greater control over
how your data is interacted with - reducing the opportunity for mishap. A
lot of corporate IT departments view this as common sense.

It makes sense for code reuse as well of course.

Later you might want to further isolate the business logic as well in such a
way that it makes it easier to modify, improve, replace - making your
applications much smarter and scalable. This is an area where I know folks
like Chipp and Jerry have a lot of experience so they probably have more
real life examples of the hows and whys.

Yes. Absolutely. Self healing of applications is certainly a very smart idea.
