... Usually the proportion of correct answers vs wrong ones in the QotD is better (unless the question is flawed of course)...
or the answer cannot be determined by simply copying/pasting a script and running it in SSMS. 😉
This QOD did bring my attention to a new (to me) data type, one not listed in the main list of data types on my SQL 2005 BOL. Yes, I got it right, but the answer "function" did tempt me as "sysname" is also documented as a .NET property of the DataType class, so I understand why some respondents would have chosen that answer.
