Are you referring to SQL as a general language? It isn't a
general-purpose programming language, right? It has been my experience
that you always need another language, combined with SQL, to write a
complete system and you might be assuming that when you talk about a
SQL DBMS, rather than just SQL as the only interface with a DBMS.
Mountain Man might be able to get an entire application out of the SQL
DBMS if you toss in PL/SQL, but not just SQL, or am I missing
something? --dawn
