... one of them even told me that he'd never worked with clustered indexes before because he'd never had to work with clustered servers before.
Did you hire him?

Heh... no, but I referred him to the same company where a "developer" told me that he had to put a CLR into the system because SQL had no hopes of doing such a thing and it was holding up his project. It was a CLR to calculate modulus.

RBAR is pronounced "ree-bar" and is a "Modenism" for Row-By-Agonizing-Row.

________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.
