  • RE: why is my sql box not using all 16GB????

    You need to check your Server properties and see if SQL has priority for memory or not. Also, remember that just because the memory is available, if SQL doesn't need...

  • RE: insert data

    You could also use OpenRowSet without creating a linked server, I believe. Or SSIS.

    There are plenty of methods available. The question is, what tools does your workplace have available for...

  • RE: why i can't shrink tempdb data file

    My thought on this issue is that the server still thinks something's wrong.

  • RE: Database Mail Problems

    ????

    SQL Server shouldn't require SSIS in order to use database mail. SSIS SMTP mail should be completely separate from the database engine SMTP mail.
