Stored Query vs SQL Statement

8,834 Recognized Expert Expert
One frequently asked question at TheScripts is "Should I use a Stored Query or an SQL Statement in those situations that require a Query (RecordSets, RecordSources, Append, Delete, Update Operations, etc.)?" The response, in virtually all but a few circumstances, is that you should use a Stored Query in place of the parallel SQL Statement. The brief explanation that follows will explain the reasoning behind this:
  1. When you store a Query as a Database Object, Access analyzes the Query and stores an optimized version.
  2. When you run a Stored Query, you are running a version of the Query that has already been optimized as explained in Item #1.
  3. Should you change a Query, Access will again analyze it the next time you run it and it will again store the newly optimized version. This optimization will persist until if, and when, you make another change to the Query.
  4. Each time you run an SQL Statement, Access analyzes the Statement and determines the optimal way to execute it.
  5. This 'Optimal Execution Path' is not stored internally for the SQL Statement as it is for its Stored Query counterpart.
  6. Because the analysis and optimization take time, the SQL Statement usually executes more slowly than the equivalent Stored Procedure.

I am able to retrieve database information, so I know my application server can talk to the database.

I get the following error after trying to...

Hi group, I have a select statement that if run against a 1 million record database directly in query analyzer takes less than 1 second. However, if I execute the select statement in a stored procedure instead, calling the stored proc from query analyzer, then it takes 12-17 seconds. Here is what I execute in Query Analyzer when bypassing the stored procedure:

Hi, I have a stored procedure that I want to execute and then wait in a loop showing a timer whilst it completes and then carry on once I get notification that it has completed. The main reason for this being to stop the user thinking the application has frozen when in fact it is just waiting for a long SP to complete. Another reason for doing it like this is that I also have had a problem in the past where the SP takes longer than the...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
