The necessity to hack this together - for oracle, odbc, and other databases - is why there's a discussion in the pear list archives concluding that the core db layer won't emulate non-portable features like numrows. was the decision "lowest common denominator" or just "we're going to support whatever the current db supports, the rest is your problem :)" I like the latter, the only thing that's a _little_ annoying about metabase is it will try and emulate features for you, which I'm not convinced is the best way to go. _alex *** Hmmm...
