| Some people here says that "SQL is good if you dont use Cursor"other says "Dont use cursor" , etcThen i ask you.How can i Populate a Listview without using Cursor to fetch one by one row?In other words, i need to populate a listview with several rows, buti need to check each row first before sent to listview.this is because if i use SELECT instead CURSOR, SELECT retuns several rows at same time, and i need to check one by one first.by the way i am using embebbed SQL.tksCarlos Lages |

| Should use stored procs.SQL Server will always return a cursor to a client (i.e. on ordered rusultset) for processing in the application language - which is probably designed to handle cursors rather than perform set based processing.What you should avoid is declaring explicit cursors in sql.==========================================Cursors are useful if you don't know sql.DTS can be used in a similar way.Beer is not cold and it isn't fizzy. |
