Red Gate Web Site Usability Survey

  • Article

Red Gate asked if we would run a link to a short survey they are working on. Should only take a couple minutes and no personal information is required. They've been an advertiser with us since almost the beginning so we're glad to pass this along to our readers.

Building Communities with Software

  • Article

Steve Jones found this link that has some great thoughts on how software should be used to help build a community. Read this if you have time and post some comments. One thing in particular we liked (read the article!) were the comments about emailing responses. Your comments on this one will help us plan as we continue to try to build a better site/community.

Question of the Day

Switching Schemas I

I run this query:

SELECT 
 s.name AS schemaname
 , o.name AS objectname
 FROM sys.objects o
 INNER JOIN sys.schemas s ON s.schema_id = o.schema_id
 WHERE o.name = 'Beer'
I get one row back for an object named dbo.beer. There is an ETL schema and both of these are nonpartitioned tables. I run this code:
ALTER TABLE dbo.beer switch TO etl.beer
What happens?
