Subject: RE: Select * in SQL

All,

Let me be the devil's advocate and say that I prefer * despite all the
arguments made against it. To me, hand-coding the column names before it
becomes evident that this is needed for performance reasons amounts to
premature optimization. Most of the time, especially early on in
development, using the * prevents annoying code errors where a data
model change requires you to go back through a bunch of cfquery's and
add a new column that is now needed. 

Leon

Heh - I was referencing that same preso.  Even looked it up to make sure
I had the right example.
