This week he offers some good hints for planning the contruction of a proc that will use dynamic sql. He also adds some suggestions on how to format the code so that when you return to it later, you can figure out what you were doing! http://www.sqlservercentral.com/articles/Miscellaneous/howtobuilddynamicstoredprocedures/968/2005/12/16http://www.sqlservercentral.com/articles/Miscellaneous/howtobuilddynamicstoredprocedures/968/This is the first article by Steve Jones that examines a programming technique for handling operations that may be too large to run in a single query. http://www.sqlservercentral.com/articles/Miscellaneous/batching/151/2004/11/05http://www.sqlservercentral.com/articles/Miscellaneous/batching/151/Reducing the amount of round trips between a server and client is something that can give you a great boost in performance. David Poole looks at how he solved a problem with HTML checkboxes and the challenges they solve in a programming environment. Without Dynamic SQL! http://www.sqlservercentral.com/articles/Miscellaneous/reducingroundtripsworkingwithhtmlcheckboxes/1398/2004/06/11http://www.sqlservercentral.com/articles/Miscellaneous/reducingroundtripsworkingwithhtmlcheckboxes/1398/Bad data is almost a given, but true duplicate data can really cause you some headaches. How do you remove all the duplicates and still leave a 'keeper' record? If you think procedural code it's not too hard, but can you do a set based solution? Chris shows you show! http://www.sqlservercentral.com/articles/Miscellaneous/findinganddeletingduplicatedata/1075/2003/07/25http://www.sqlservercentral.com/articles/Miscellaneous/findinganddeletingduplicatedata/1075/Fast Track to MDX gives readers all the necessary background information needed to write useful, powerful MDX expressions and introduces the most frequently used MDX functions and constructs. No prior knowledge is assumed and examples are used throughout the book to rapidly develop MDX skills to the point where a reader can solve real business problems. A CD containing examples from within the book, and a time-limited version of ProClarity, is includedhttp://www.sqlservercentral.com/redirect/articles/971/2003/05/01http://www.sqlservercentral.com/redirect/articles/971/Robert is our expert on dynamic sql.

Using named parameters when you call the proc or passing the values by ordinal? Should you be? Andy thinks 6 out of 10 of our readers will agree with his point of view, we'll be a little more conservative and guess that 5 of out 10 will be closer. http://www.sqlservercentral.com/articles/Miscellaneous/defaultvaluesandnamedparametersforstoredprocs/882/2003/01/08http://www.sqlservercentral.com/articles/Miscellaneous/defaultvaluesandnamedparametersforstoredprocs/882/This is the first article by Steve Jones that examines a programming technique for handling operations that may be too large to run in a single query. http://www.sqlservercentral.com/articles/Miscellaneous/batching/151/2004/11/05http://www.sqlservercentral.com/articles/Miscellaneous/batching/151/
