  • This was removed by the editor as SPAM

  • please add the Express to the question itself - who is reading titles???

  • "Nice easy one today!" - 48% of us disagree 🙂

  • This is the question that appeared to me:

    What is the maximum relational database size of the SQL Server 2014 edition can grow to?

  • There is error in answer.

    "What is the maximum relational database size of the SQL Server 2014 edition can grow to?"

    Maximum relational Database size = 524 PB

    There isn't word "Express" in question!

    Darn, didn't read the title!

    How many times have you sat an exam and the examiner has stressed that you need to read the question carefully first? 😉

    I'll never learn...

  • You did read the question so you learnt well from your tutor, maybe teachers / tutors should start stressing that people read titles carefully, then read questions carefully once you have understood the title. Pass the blame onto the education system 🙂

  • Another terrible question. Only 16 words in the question - you could have extended it to 18 by adding "Express Edition".

    This was the question titled "Max DB Size for SQL Server Express"?

    Mind you, 55% wrong answers - it does show how easily things can be missed.

    No, it's the question that appeared on my daily newsletter "What is the maximum relational database size of the SQL Server 2014 edition can grow to?". Somehow, the author lost his typing skills just before the word "edition". It should have read "What is the maximum relational database size of the SQL Server 2014 Express edition can grow to?"

    Of course, it's perfectly possible that this was the author's intent. In which case, it's pretty tragic.

  • Awful question..
