    I wouldn't be leaving my laptop in the car when I go to get a coffee - not even locked in the trunk. Not only that, I would...

  • RE: Little Security Issues

    As far as security goes, it can't get much worse than the laptop I took on my vacation last month. The carry-case had a sheet of paper on it...

  • RE: Looping through a list of variables

    Parse the statement (the description) into individual words, one word per row. You can parse on spaces, then separate punctuation marks into their own rows. (The scripts section...

  • RE: Can an Excel Document be Exported in Zipped Format within SSRS

    I've used the WinZip command line interface to automate that kind of thing. It's very straight-forward, and the documentation is reasonably good. I haven't checked the cost recently,...

    It is possible to set a maximum timeout value for remote queries, at the server level, but that won't do what you're looking for. For that, it would need...

  • RE: two indexes give exact same execution plan but optimizer always picks 1. why?

    If the two indexes really provide exactly the same execution plan, then the optimizer just picks one. Probably the first one. All other things being equal, it has...

  • RE: Sql Server vs Sql server

    Different data in the tables

    Data cached on one and not on the other

  • RE: Moving from SQL Server 7 to 2008

    I'd go with a two-step upgrade. First to 2005, then to 2008. Unless the database is really, really simple, that should get the job done in the best...
