    A misspelling. Should have been klap (Afrikaans)

    Once again actually demonstrating the inaccuracy of your answers?

    If you can't explain to another person how the code that you're copying from the internet works, then DON'T USE IT on a production system! After all, you will be the one supporting it!

    Those are used for cutting steak right?

    Or are they the spindle-y things that they stack onion rings on?

  • Okay, time for a Chicken Dentist 'cause I'm done trying to pull teeth on thread where someone thinks a loop is the only way to accomplish a one off report without even looking at possible alternatives.

  • Heh, I like the wording. OP is "set" on doing it with the loop. Puns are great 🙂

  • I love it when I learn something in an area where I thought I knew it all.

    You have made me very curious. What was the subject?

    Table Variables. They automatically use a nolock query hint.

    (Please Thread, don't smite me for posting code here...)

    DECLARE @X TABLE (Col1 INT);

    SELECT Col1

    FROM @X

    OPTION (RECOMPILE, QUERYTRACEON 3604, QUERYTRACEON 8607);

    Oh and TF 3604 is typically used for certain console commands to output to screen. In this case, it is used to send the output of TF 8607 to screen.
