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

    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...

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

    Okay, now I feel just plain silly. @=)

  • RE: Does anyone know anything about the company SetFocus?

    Half the stuff posted on Monster anymore seems to be trying to get people into Sales jobs or get them into training classes.  It's sad.

    Worse when they stick ads for...

  • RE: The other side of outsourcing

    Good point on the definition, Matt.

    I actually meant outsourced in the sense that the DBA A) a contractor (not employed directly by the company and B) doesn't come into the...

    If the practice tests are any example, I'm thinking you have 145 minutes total for the exam.  The other stuff may be covered by NDAs (I haven't taken the test...

  • RE: The other side of outsourcing

    Has anyone noticed whether DBAs get outsourced?  I've heard of programming, help desks and other call centers getting outsourced, but I've never heard one instance of DBA outsourcing.

    I can't imagine how anyone could...

    AHA!  I think I finally found the the way to turn XML datatype data into data you can operate on.

    Does the Nodes() method sound correct to anyone?

  • RE: The other side of outsourcing

    And people think schools in Florida are bad! @=)

  • RE: The other side of outsourcing

    I find it extremely amusing that U.S. companies are starting to go elsewhere because of rising salaries and labor shortages.  What did they think was going to happen once everyone...
