I saw nothing stating SQL Server was the bottleneck.  ye | 10/21/09
Why did you distort JM1981's words?  Isocrates | 10/21/09
My thoughts also.  pmcgrath@... | 10/21/09
Yeah, being able to freely modify and tweak the code as desired  Ole Man | 10/21/09

Quick note.  dchase@... | 10/21/09
Still missing the point  pmcgrath@... | 10/22/09
Narrow focus.  dchase@... | 10/22/09
