OK...that certainly does not negate my statement above...

This isn't a book or article where you can invent scenarios to support a position; this is the real world.

Gee...thanks for pointing that out. Not sure what your point is, but thanks anyway...

Leaping to a new script does not explain why you lectured her big-time about what a silly-billy she was to use SPT rather than SP.

The ONLY thing I took issue was the supposed requirement of HIPAA that it was a per se rule that people outside a company could not have access to data. The justification for rejecting SP's and going with embedded SQL was not particularly convincing.

Well, nobody is pitting RV over SP - there's that imaginary debate again. What IS being said is that a sophisticated developer considers the circumstances before making a decision; you seem to advocate making a decision first, then requiring customers, developers and everybody else to fit in or they are inferior.

A sophisticated developer is also efficient - and that means not engaging in the same analysis in a redundant manner. Remember JR - this is the real world.
RV's - regardless of the implementation - have too many issues. i.e., using a case by case analytical approach is not going to - all of a sudden - put RV's in the pantheon of best practices...
You know JR, it seems to me that you constantly go out of your way to justify to me - your approach and use of RV's. You do realize that OTOH, I could not care less whether you come around to my way of thinking. Whether you use RV's or not - I don't care. You do realize that when I responded to this thread - you were not the recipient. And for the record, Rod suggested SP's as well. I simply picked up on that point. You OTOH, have taken yet another opportunity to hammer home again why RV's/client-side rendered SQL gets knocked. And - you only seem to do it to me.
Whatever..I don't have a vested interest in which you come out on the matter. That said, when somebody posts a general question - calling for an opinion, I will render it if I so choose. And, if you want to comment on my opinion, you certainly can - but you are beating a dead horse.

No, I advocate flexibility and open-minded, intelligent assessment of circumstances leading to whatever decisions make sense in the circumstances.

I am sure you do....

You seem to say that circumstances only matter if they support decisions you made well in advance and which are not subject to discussion or review.

Perhaps you should look in the mirror...
