Hello.

I was reading documentation about improving performance in MyDAC. I usually need to update a lot of records.
This is what I found in MyDAC help Increasing performance topic:
To execute SQL statements TMyCommand component is more preferable than TMyQuery. It can give additional several percent performance gain.


If TCustomDADaataSet.Options.StrictUpdate option is set to False, RowsAffected property is not calculated and becomes equal zero. This can improve performance of query executing, so if you need to execute many data updating statements at once and you don't mind affected rows count set this option to false.


So to increase performance I have to use TMyCommand and to set Options.StrictUpdate := False.
But TMyCommand does not have Options property.

Is any performance lost in this case?

Thanks.

Please, Please...

First of All:

Convert MyDAC Help to a CHM format. The New :twisted: Microsoft Help System :twisted:
is very Slow

For a better documentation, i think you need do describe:
1. implementation of the statement, with code example is good.
2. if the statement raise error. describe what developer should do. sometimes i don't know if error is from mydac component or from mysql.
