    I ran count(*) and got the count as 1048912 and when I ran sp_spaceused I get 1048613 , the count doesnt match . Any Comments?

    Yes... see my previous post (2nd post in this thread).

    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.
