Interesting stuff Jonathan.

Hope the CEO has forgiven you by now. :)

Seems that I've read that 'building SQL incrementally' in the past.

I nearly always start with the FROM, then go to the WHERE, using a SELECT COUNT(*) to get these working, then fill in the the columns needed, always using table aliases of course.

I just wrote an article on using aliases that some might find interesting. It came out of a question a reader asked me. The article is at:
