Shan - theoretically you need to use as much stratagy in both classes, this is due to the long and short term nature of the classes.
Wizards are very flexable on a long term basis (i.e. if you have some time to solve a situation a wizard can generally do it) however he is restricted by the fact that he has to prepare the spells he is going to be able to cast after 8 hours of rest.
Sorcers are very flesable on the short term because they have access to their full range of spells on tap, however they suffer on the long term because their spell selection is very limited and so they can only focus on a few areas.
In both cases though the character needs to be aware of the fact that they may need to be able to cast their spell(s) later where it would be nice to cast them now.
Prior to 3.5 ed. I would say that Wizards needed to be more inventive as the spells at their disposal were very flexable and they were more likly to have in appropriate spells in memory.

Thanks DragonLord. I really do appreciate all the information. With all of the help I have gotten from you guys, I at least have a chance of knowing a little about what is going on. Hmmmm, I wonder which would be the easiest to play? I guess that would depend on how a person like to play their character. Do most people who play spellcasters play just using spells or do they usually carry a weapon with them also? Looks like there would be a great chance of running out of spells and needing another way of defending yourself. Shan
