That was just my opinion - I could be wrong. You might want to experiment with it. Consider that fact that each bizobj has a possible different connection. That means Dabo will use the correct connection to access the data and put the data into a cursor. But you are asking the SQL to do the work and not Dabo. So how can the SQL be passed correctly to both DB's? Now working with dataset's is a horse of a different color. I think you might get that to work. In fact I do something similar when I work with DBF's and Postgres. I get the DBF into a dataset and work with the data until I pass it to Postgres via the datasets.
