The legacy applications we are dealing with run smoothly and quickly for the most part, but are teetering on the edge of being un-maintainable.

I didn't know what I was in for. https://www.codersrevolution.com/blog/MSSQLs-openquery-Saved-Me Sat, 04 Oct 2008 11:34:00 GMT brad@ortussolutions.com (Brad Wood) AS400 Performance SQL https://www.codersrevolution.com/blog/MSSQLs-openquery-Saved-Me
