I've never met a standalone application. Not once. There are
*always*requirements for other systems to interface with it, users to
get data via
ODBC etc. If they don't exist at go-live they do exist by year 2. Its often
the fact that these things come along and the business logic is only in the
front end that *causes* the sorts of probelms described by Andrew. Data gets
directly loaded or edited without being validated by the business logic and
turns out - despite the protestations of the users - to be invalid.

Hi,

I read Tom Kyte's "Effective Oracle by Design". There he says to write most
of the code in the DB itself to reduce application code. It is good in a
distributed environment, but is it advantageous in an standalone application
also?

My app. is in .NET.
