Myself, I would not use stored db procedures for text manipulation. I
believe databases are for retrieving data not business logic.

Beg to differ. Your db is an excellent place to store business logic
in a place close to the data it pertains to, and in a way that is
centrally available to all apps subject to your business logic.

I will agree with you, however it seems to me that ingres procedural
offerings are not really that brilliant for coding business logic with and
worse still coding business logic inside a database is the kiss of death
when some of your customers don't want ingres.

Logically speaking Emiliano, your quite right, but practically speaking, I'm
not so sure.

Despite all the misgivings, I would still use database rules and procedures
for many things, always mindful that it's not portable, nor ideal.
