    Hi Jeff,

    After i divided size (KB) with Rows it came out 30 KB (around) size for each row. So each page contains 8 KB. So a row on my table contains almost 4 pages?

    Yep... Blobs (MAX datatypes, XML, etc) live in other "tables" and are handled differently than "in-row" data but that's what it boils down to and that probably includes the weight of indexes, which are also important in capacity planning.

    RBAR is pronounced "ree-bar" and is a "Modenism" for Row-By-Agonizing-Row.
    First step towards the paradigm shift of writing Set Based code:
    ________Stop thinking about what you want to do to a ROW... think, instead, of what you want to do to a COLUMN.

    Change is inevitable... Change for the better is not.
