Performance: Autosearch criteria VS SQL WHERE clause

edited January 2005 in General
Hi,

I'd like to know how fast are the AutoSearchField VS using a SQL WHERE
clause in Report Builder? I suppose that SQL WHERE clause is faster on a
huge amount of data, but I'm curious, because I have reports with complex
queries with a lot of INNER and LEFT OUTER joins. Any people did some tests
?

    Hi David,

    Using the AutoSearch feature in ReportBuilder is the exact same as changing
    the Where clause in the sql. In fact, this is how AutoSearch works. See
    the AutoSearch demo located in the \RBuilder\Demos\5. AutoSearch\3.
    AutoSearch Field to SQL Where Clause\... directory to see how this works in
    Delphi.
