I have been taking "SQL" to mean SQL commands to define and manage the
table, and embedded SQL in a HLL for data manipulation.

I have been taking "DDS" to mean the native (original) methods to
manipulate tables -- DDS to define, OS commands to manage existence and
attributes, and standard HLL I/O operations for data manipulation.

With these definitions, there is validity to Vern's contention, as
"DDS" includes the various OS commands to manage triggers, contraints,
journaling, etc.

Vern,

"DDS has all the functionality (and more)."  I don't think so.  What
are 
the DDS keywords for referential (and other) constraints?
