  • RE: The SQL * Wildcard

    The point of my test was because someone at Microsoft (according to the OP) said that what many people have assumed for years about true about the pitfalls of Select...

  • RE: copy

    You need to learn DOS commands. XCopy is probably your best bet.

    Also, you'll need to make sure that:

    A) Xp_Cmdshell is enabled on your SQL Server (check the SQL...

  • RE: ANSI_NULLs when creating objects

    The quickest way (and as previously mentioned, you'll want to test this) is to script out all the objects in your database as Drop & Creates. Now you could...

  • RE: Getting into Datawarehousing

    Good point, Tim. I just found out about that yesterday. I'm about to spend a lot of time on Channel9. @=)

  • RE: Create and use temporary INDEX

    Like Matt, I would not do a Select Count(*). If you're only looking for the existence of the records instead of caring about how many records there actually are,...

  • RE: Send SQLReport Snapshot through email (database mail)

    Just a note, I don't think SSRS cares about the email address when it creates a snapshot. A bad email wouldn't cause it to not create the snapshot. ...

  • RE: Compatibility Level 90

    That's pretty cool. You should do the "Submit a Script" so that one gets into the newsletter. You'll get all sorts of feedback then. @=)

  • RE: At what size db does it make sense to split into multiple files?

    You're misreading what they are saying. They are not saying "create a file for each CPU" only. They are saying to do it based on your disk configuration...

  • RE: Create and use temporary INDEX

    You can't link indexes between tables. An index only ever goes on 1 table only.

    The only way to link tables is with a foreign key constraint and that's not...

  • RE: At what size db does it make sense to split into multiple files?

    Tom,

    It's not the number of disks involved in the RAID per say. It's the way the files are divided.

    Think of it this way.

    In RAID 1, you have...

  • RE: At what size db does it make sense to split into multiple files?

    Keep in mind that one data file per CPU does you little good unless you've got separate disk controllers accessing the data. You might notice a difference due to...

  • RE: sql case sensitive vs case insensitive

    The only security issue I can think of with case sensitivity is Ye Ole Password issue. It depends on whether you want to use case sensitivity on logins.

  • RE: How to delete first couple of rows without knowing column name

    Ravi,

    It might be the DBA doesn't want to give that kind of access. But just in case the DBA really can't figure it out, tell him/her to grant you...

  • RE: Create and use temporary INDEX

    Alberto,

    Unfortunately, without more details on what you're trying to pull from the table, I can't assist you further. You need to give more details on what you're trying to...
