How would the developer do that? With the front-end I am working with 
(ColdFusion MX) I have very little control over the actual calls to the 
driver. I can make CF MX use createStatement() or prepareStatement() but 
that is all the control I have. And the only way to send parameters to 
the driver would be through a JDBC URL.
Would that enable me to use prepared statements for real or not?
