  • This assembly is required to call filesave and folderdialog box via powershell.

    Do you latest .net framework installed on your machine ?

  • I use to call this powershell script via batch file.

    Here is the code for the batch file

    @echo off

    powershell -executionpolicy bypass -File C:\Users\mayank\Documents\Powershell\SqlMisc.ps1

    pause

    Just change the path for the powershell script

  • Such utilities can be easily used by the developers in the team without making them approach to DBA for such tasks on various development or testing environments.

    Who fixes it when either the MDF drive or the backup drive get's filled up?  Who fixes it when one developer does a restore over a database of another that has a lot of critical test data in it?

    I give my Developers a whole lot of freedom on the Dev boxes but backups and restores won't ever be one of them.

    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.

    They can do it them self.

    They are all sysadmins, if they can execute those commands.

    So, they do not need anybody else to maintain the server.
