    Speak for yourself, my work still operates off local SQL databases set up 22 years ago. On this day it is I who gets to laugh.

        No, but I do have to ask a random ITC group for access to direct query the data, even though I’m the one responsible for the DBs, put the data in there, and they have nfi idea what any of it is.

        Spoiler alert, I was denied, but am still allowed to query the data off into CSV to store locally or onto SP so it can then be PowerQueried into Excel or BI…because to them, this is more secure than the Oracle add-on for MS…

        Also they’re running the SDK off like Java 5 or something. A third-party version of it…

        I wake up to a bleeding nose every workday.
