I started my SQL journey here at SQLServerCentral as one of the founders, helping to build a place to share and learn that continues to thrive under the editorial guidance of my friend Steve Jones. I've done a lot of volunteer work over the years ranging from our local SQL group (oPASS, SQLOrlando) to serving on the Board of Directors of PASS to designing and building the framework of SQLSaturday (which has gone on to produce more than 1000 locally managed events since we started in 2007). These days I manage a DBA team, but over the years I've been a trainer, consultant, contractor, and DBA. I'm rarely present on social media, the best way to contact me is here, LinkedIn, or via email.

Script to Attach Multiple MDF

SQLServerCentral

Miscellaneous

Copies mdf files located in a directory on a client and attaches them to the connected server. This is the winning solution to the contest that was presented in an article posted at http://www.sqlservercentral.com/columnists/awarren/reattachingdatabases-somecodeandacontest!.asp. That article shows how to do the same thing using DMO. Wynn Muse is the author of this stored procedure.
