  • RE: Is SQL aware of VERITAS?

    mforbes, I know that.  That was my second comment.  My first comment or question is this:

    Veritas can backup everything on the Server.  So, it backs up the OS, the folder structure...

  • RE: Is SQL aware of VERITAS?

    Or, horror of horrors, the team is re-imaging the entire server which would "convienently restore" SQL Server to the state everything was in at the time Veritas took its snapshot...

  • RE: Efficencies of ORDER BY

    AHA!  Now that's an argument I can use. 

    Thanks, Steve. @=)

    Darnit... Can't get the quote thing to quote the line I wanted to quote...  Meant to quote "Also, what about...

  • RE: Stored Procs - 4 part naming

    Ahhh.  Good one, Rudy.

    Forget dynamic SQL.  Use Rudy's suggestion.  It'll save you having to change even the linked server connection / alias if the hardware changes.

  • RE: If Exists...Drop Table not always working...

    Andras,

    I just noticed that myself... GAH!  I'm working on so many bug fixes today that I feel like I left my brain at home.  I am such a Ditz sometimes....

  • RE: If Exists...Drop Table not always working...

    I still don't understand why ObjectID() would make a difference with non-temporary tables.  It just happened to me again....Sortof.  Now in the opposite way...

  • RE: Efficencies of ORDER BY

    Unfortunately, the Upgrade Advisor article in BOL doesn't actually say what might be depreciated in future versions of SQL Server.  And I actually need quotable text to give to the...

  • RE: Efficencies of ORDER BY

    Maybe that's what I saw.  Information on the numeral version being depreciated... Ninja, do you have a source for that?

    Thanks,

  • RE: help with Delete statement

    If you're aliasing a Delete table for a join, the same principal works.  Example:

    Delete from MyTable

    from MyTable t1

    join OtherTable t2

    on t1.A = t2.A  ...

    Basically, you have to list the FROM...

  • RE: Stored Procs - 4 part naming

    Are you talking about in the text of the proc or in the actual proc name?

    You can write a T-SQL statement that pulls the name & Text of the Procs affected...

  • RE: Disabling Job Steps - What do YOU think?

    Except for the problem that the job is what actually schedules the SSIS package, so using SSIS to schedule the job wouldn't work except in a very recursive, clumsy way.

    The more I think about your idea, Ed, the more I like it.  I'm not sure how easy or hard it really would be for MS to code it up,...

  • RE: Disabling Job Steps - What do YOU think?

    I definitely would like to just go in and click a little check box next to each job step to say "Disabled".  It would make my life much easier.  And...

  • RE: Automate procedure for inserion

    As much as I hate to suggested it, the only way you can do what you want is through the use of dynamic SQL.  Stored procedures and Cursors don't like...

  • RE: Disabling Job Steps - What do YOU think?

    Well, the agent does support that sort of thing much in the same manner as John mentioned the disabling of steps.  What you do is use the sp_start_job proc to...
