  • RE: db design - daily and report db question + use of replication for this aim ?

    Planning this kind of thing isn't an easy task.

    Rather than worrying about a single database being a single-point-of-failure (where if it goes down, the whole thing is down), you need...

  • RE: What are the differences between the SQL Server 2000 DB objects and SQL Server 2005 DB objects?

    MSDN has whitepapers and articles on the differences. I'd look there.

    Also has advice on how to best use the upgrade wizard.

  • RE: Top 1 or Max??

    If there are multiple rows with the same date-time in the MyDateColumn, the first query will only give you one of them, but the second query will give you all...

  • RE: Ordered XML Columns

    You know, somehow I thought I had tried those and they didn't get me what I wanted. I was wrong. They work. Thanks. 🙂

  • RE: T-SQL Difficult select and where

    I'm not clear on why that one should not show. The prior steps have status 1 and the current step has status null. Per what I'm reading in...

  • RE: Parse Address Column

    There are programs (like Satori Software's MailRoom Toolkit) that can parse out addresses for you, and verify their mailability at the same time.

    There are also companies that can do that...

  • RE: SImple Design Question

    My first instinct would be to start out with one table, for simplicity, and then evolve the design from there as you use it.

    That way, you'll find how it actually...

  • RE: How do you audit who is logging in to SQL?

    The problem with login triggers is that, if anything gets messed up so that they error out, nobody will be able to log in to the server, including you. ...

  • RE: RANK or ROW_NUMBER Question

    Where the following date is 3 days later and is a Monday. Of course, that doesn't work for three-day weekends, etc., but it at least gets you the basic...

  • RE: RANK or ROW_NUMBER Question

    Why not do it as a five-layer join?

    select *

    from #tempsick t1

    inner join #tempsick t2

    on t1.employeeid = t2.employeeid

    and t1.fromdate = t2.fromdate - 1

    inner join #tempsick t3

  • RE: Monitor a table

    DBMail is an asynchronous process. Having it in a trigger is unlikely to interfere with transactional completion. Failure to contact the e-mail server definitely does NOT interfere with...

  • RE: Server Core & SQL 2005

    From what Microsoft says about it, I'm not sure whether it will work with SQL 2005 or not. Your best bet would be to set up a virtual machine,...

  • RE: Exporting Data to Flat File Ntext Conversion Error

    Have you tried NVarchar(max)?

  • RE: Read Only Database

    You have a permissions issue is all. You need to set up User to have datareader rights, and to have Execute rights on the select procs.

    I've gotten good use...

  • RE: The Oscars

    Oh, and another good one from this year, Changeling (Angelina Jolie, directed by Clint Eastwood). Very good. Not a kid movie.

    Wanted (Angelina Jolie, Morgan Freeman) was quite a...
