No - I'm not saying my process is inefficient.

*Think* about what will really happen when an ADO search is kicked-off,
think about what I'm coding, then tell me it's leagues apart in terms of
efficiency?

1. We're talking about objects.
2. They're destroyed every time the sub ends.

It's a pointless question.

Garbage collection occurs, we're talking about objects that are transient.

You seem to be under the mistaken impression that everything done by ADO is
as efficient as it gets, and doing similar, but perhaps more selective
things *easier* and by hand must be inefficient. Now there's a point about
where the processing may occur - but having to contend with paging for
larger enquiries is telling you something, isn't it?
