What exactly is a cross-product? A cross-tabular select?  I just never heard
the term used...I hope admitting that doesn't boot me back down to newbie

P.S. I agree "SQR in PeopleSoft and other applications" is excellent! It has
a great section on optimizing SQL statements. I don't recall any other books
that had such a concise summary of that!
