Hi JJ ... now that you're out there in the Real World <grin>, maybe you could help us understand the role of RDBMS-level validation vs application logic. I suspect that will be the pattern that XML B2B/A2A systems will tend to follow once XML Schema implementations and applications mature. Are you saying that the RDBMS triggers, rules, etc. are mostly used during the debugging phase, and perhaps that application logic (JavaBeans in an app server or whatever) tends to handle the validation in the production applications? If so, is that because the DB triggers/rules/etc. have too much of a performance burden?
