Jay,

Take a look into using stored outlines.  If the problem is with the vendor's
code not using bind variables, I don't know that this will help, but you may
find some instances where it might be useful.

I heard recently that a book should be written with just one chapter on bind
variables.....Chapter 1, Page 1:  Use them!  The End.

Hello:

I have a third party application which seems to have alot of unbound SQL
statements, several of which do not seem to be very effective queries.
Unfortunatelly the code is locked.

My Parse to execute ratio is around 72% and I was wondering if anyone has
any ideas on how I can decrease this?

I figure that I might start with using the parameter CURSOR_SHARING.

Any ideas would be great.

Thanks in advance,
Jay
