Hi dbeavon, Nice idea to persistent temp-tables to other databases :-) We have been using Redis as a fast in-memory cache database. Every time a calculation is done, we check Redis first and only after not checking it, we do a calculation using temp-tables. Once we have done the calculation using temp-tables we push it into Redis. Works very fast and reliable. Only downside is that we have to install a seperate product. I can't understand some of the "traditional" reasoning on the forum down the lines of "ABL can do it, why venture outside ABL". ABL and OE DB is very, very slow compared to some newer technologies for specific tasks. Using new and high-speed technology to compliment ABL isn't something to shy away from, it's almost mandatory to keep up with customer demands. Given the highly specialised databases and other fast and cool solutions out there one can't expect ABL / OE DB to fill all those gaps.
