• I would help the OP if I feel the person has taken some effort in trying to find answers themselves and is not plain lazy.

    I have found numerous posts where the OP could have done some basic things mentioned below and found the answers themselves

    1. Looked up in Google or BOL

    -- They probably don't do this as they are bombarded with numerous links and feel lazy to go through them to find the best one.

    2. Try creating a scenario in testing environment and see the results

    -- Laziness again in my opinion

    If I feel the OP is just lazy, I just ignore and move away.

    But, if there is a genuine effort from the OP's side to learn, I think most of us over here do help.
