    I’m working on the hierarchy lesson in Ken Henderson’s The Guru’s Guide to Transact-SQL.

    I'd like to recommend a different approach to hierarchies. Please see the following 2 articles. And I guarantee the code in the articles works.

    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.
