Hi all,

thanks for all your comments, very encouraging!

Jeff- sorry the title didn't meet expectations - I was just trying to make it more exciting!

Roger - I take all your points on board too - it's always good to hear both sides of any argument.

All of my SSC contributions, whether articles, QOTDs or scripts are borne out of real-life experiences, and I just hope that they help anyone, experienced or newbie, in this strange land called SQL Server that we all play in.

Kev
