I could write the code to do this, but why? Isn't it much easier to use whatever you're using for your user interface? (Honest question ... I don't...

Generally, the idea is to split responsibility between different part of the whole for efficiency and consistency. The user interface is where the data is actually being presented so...

You're right about it being terrible. I really think it would take being on the system to fix it.

Not sure what you're wanting to display for the Fee ... whether that line's portion or the full thing, but hopefully you can modify this to get what you want:

In many cases, the actual cached plan will be different for the same query depending on the source of the execution because of settings such as ARITHABORT. So, if...

If your data is such that you could possibly get ties for your minimum value, you can also do this:

;WITH cteTemp AS

(

SELECT LOAD_ID,

NAME1,

HM_TRAILER,

CITY,

STATE,

TMS_EXT_REF_ID,

ROW_NUMBER() OVER(PARTITION BY LOAD_ID ORDER BY TMS_EXT_REF_ID ASC)...

I am guessing that what you're trying to do would be much more easily accomplished with an IDENTITY value. But, as the others have noted, without more specific information...

I can't say why it's different before and after the cumulative update, but I can tell you that this is generally a problematic way to query data.

Doing any kind of...

As Joe was getting at, there are some significant design issues. Ideally, a redesign would be in order. However, I realize there are many times that such things...

Please stop with the random bolds ... really annoying.

However you rename the table you are going to need to take care of the references to the table. Personally, I...

Keep in mind that these system procs do not return information about included columns, which you may or may not need to know about.
