Re: Using all uppercase for SQL

[Bruce X <nixonwasframed@YAHOO.COM>]

As we all know, typing in uppercase is the written
equivalent of shouting.  The DB optimizers may become
intimidated and work faster.  I have used this but I
don't recommend using it with a gothic font as some
platforms become flustered and drop the table,
spilling data elements everywhere.

Someone told me that we should type all of our SQL
code in SQRs
in
uppercase so that the SQL commands are processed more
efficiently.
Anyone heard of this?
