Using a Stored procedure whould get it down..  Written by Anonymous User (#1402-57) from Minneapolis, MN (Friday, February 15, 2002)

Strengths: no comment Weaknesses: no comment Details: Using a Stored procedure would have returned the string in less than one second on a dedicated SQL Server BOX!
Also, if you have a drop down list that gets used over and over, store it in an Application variable. You can then skip the trip to the database when the Application variable exists.
But the lesson in SQL was nice. |

Strengths: no comment Weaknesses: no comment Details: A very good article, worth a read. Only works for SQL server on ADO 2.5, however, so not suitable for all solutions. |
