    Thanks David for the compliment.

    To agree to the definition of an Audit is difficult. Everyone has their own take on it. Your definition is easier to understand as well. Thanks for sharing it. 🙂

    Heh... I've found that a lot of people define "Audit" as "Keeping historical data so we know who to blame when something goes wrong." 😀

    Nicely done on the article. Good order of revelation with nice, simple examples. Well done, Roy.

    As a side bar, I'm going to use your article to justify why we don't actually want to use CT when we finally get to 2008 at the new company I'm working at. 🙂 Of course, if they wait a bit longer, we can jump to 2k12.

    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.
