    I have also attached a mock output for the screen of how it needs to be

  • RE: View Timesout For One User (Sometimes), But Not Other User

    This may have nothing to do with the issue, but I advise you to do it anyway, just to make sure it isn't the problem.

    Go through User 2's SQL Authentication...

  • RE: How do you EXPORT query results to .txt with delimiters

    BCP if you're only doing it once. SSIS (like Craig suggested) if it's going to be repeated more than 2 times.

    Don't be scared by SSIS. It's rather simple to...

  • RE: Text file data to be distributed into 3 SQL Tables - how?

    Craig Farrell (1/31/2011)


    In T-SQL, you'll build a staging table that holds all of the columns/rows.

    This can be done in SSIS as well, and might be easier than the SSIS...

  • RE: Transactions in an archive process

    No. You need to look into error checking and rollbacks. Without that, your transaction code is incomplete.

    Technically speaking (ACID test talk), if the statements fail due to syntax or server...

  • RE: View Timesout For One User (Sometimes), But Not Other User

    What types of login are the users using? SQL Server or Windows Auth?

    If Windows, is user 1 actually logging out of the system when user 2 tries? Or are...

    I would use the dreaded Dynamic SQL to build your email. Embed the whole proc and arguments into the dynamic sql, adding in the proper name, then execute it.

    There are multiple types of snapshots in SQL Server. Please clarify which type you're referring to.
