Me thinks someone needs to have a go at maintaining a 2Mloc accounting package built using only embedded SQL statements and stored procedures, including migrating the whole mess between major database vendors. I guess one advantage is you have to learn, it but I really prefer some kind of ORM for more mundane repetitive CRUD. More to get a structured (ha!) interface between the database and the application than for the convenience. I do wish most of them would stop insisting on putting the cart in front of the horse and make code the primary representation.
