Andrew, I realise I'm jumping in late, so apologies if this has already been mentioned, or I'm completely wrong.
I think the query name needs to be more unique. If your server runs another query with the same name but different SQL, the cache will be overwritten. Maybe do a search thru you code base for another query with the same name. Or rename the query, ie: qCountOfHorsesInRace#raceNo# (just an example) >From the docs: "To use cached data, current query must use same SQL statement, >data source, query name, user name, password." Cheers. ps: maybe you could ride a horse down to the Melbourne user group ;) On 21/06/2011, at 6:01 PM, "Peter Tilbrook" <peter.tilbr...@gmail.com> wrote: > But it shouldn't go back to the database to check if it's changed, if it's > truly cached.
