I never thought that these methods were a good idea to add to PEAR::DB. But today there is even less reason with the availability of two alternative layers to put ontop of PEAR::DB in the form of DB_QueryTool and DB_DataObject's that are much better fit to offer this type of interface to an RDBMS. So I would rather discourage further additions to these methods. -1 from me. Regards, Lukas
