I'd agree with that statement.

Plus now I can do the same thing in DB2 LUW, Oracle, MS SQL Server, MySQL, ....

Tom,

I know that on my first 3 or 4 update, delete or insert statements, I could
have written a program to do the same thing in less time.  However, now that
I have paid that learning curve time, I can do things much faster with an
SQL statement than by writing a program.

Just my 2 pennies.
