    Good solution for small Database but not for terrabyte databases. Ours takes 3 days to load from backup. Using partitioning and file groups or snapshot is a better choice

    Heh... wow, Gary... does the boss know that? 3 days is an awfully long time to be "out of business". I'm thinking you and yours need to figure out a way to do some parallel loads to cut the time down.

    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.
