    Society has varying and conflicting interests; what is called objectivity is the disguise of one of these interests - that of neutrality. But neutrality is a fiction in an unneutral world.

  • RE: convert -ve int to +ve bigint

    How about:

    Set @bigIntCardField1 = @Card * -1

    SQL server does an implicit conversion from int to bigint so no need to cast @Card

  • RE: SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON

    If you want SQL Server to retain your comments within the stored procedure then you need to include the comments within the body...

  • RE: SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON

    When I script out a stored procedure in SSMS, the SET QUOTED_IDENTIFIER ON is placed above the Stored procedure declaration. So I'm wondering, are you sure you're including the comments...

  • RE: Report to have servername as parameter display data

    There are two parts to your process.

    1) Information gathering
