Why should they be equivalent? The second one is the way the DAL API has been defined -- you create a Set object (i.e., a query defines a set of records), and then apply a method (e.g., .select, .update, .delete) on that set. In this case, the .select method is where you specify things like the fields to select, orderby, etc. Anthony -- Resources: - http://web2py.com - http://web2py.com/book (Documentation) - http://github.com/web2py/web2py (Source code) - https://code.google.com/p/web2py/issues/list (Report Issues) --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "web2py-users" group.
