    Re: Time to move my money? I wonder.

    Crud. I go away for the weekend and come back to my fears being made real. Looks like I'll be shopping around for an alternative this week then.

    I don't think the lack of response is because we lack experience. What you're doing is pretty standard stuff that we deal with daily. The reason you've had no response is that you've posted this in...

    Nope. The select statement is simply feeding rows into the insert statement. It's not returning rows back to the client.

    Or even better, write a form based super-class with that method in it and inherit from it.
