  • RE: Data conversion

    When will people ever learn about date formats?

    The correct answer ("depends on the locale settings") was not listed, so I had to throw a coin to choose between theory a...

  • RE: T-SQL GO statement

    Durai, what are you using as the client? SSMS supports this since version 2005 (maybe even earlier). I don't know about the other tools.

  • RE: Keywords

    michael.kaufmann (2/15/2011)


    One reason may well be that a German keyboard doesn't make it that easy to use brackets [], as you have to press CTRL + ALT + 8 or...

  • RE: Keywords

    I don't know if the explanations in BOL are correct or not, but here is the deal.

    The ANSI standard says that double quotes should be used to delimit identifiers, and...

  • RE: Resource database - SQL Server 2008

    Mike Dougherty-384281 (2/11/2011)


    Would you care to voice an opinion on whether this kind of heavy-handedness is a good idea?

    I see no problem wirth it. I would if I could not...

  • RE: Resource database - SQL Server 2008

    sknox (2/11/2011)


    The best answer I could find to that was here:

    http://www.sqldev.org/sql-server-setup--upgrade/moving-resource-database-in-sql-server-2008-doesnot-work-96677.shtml

    which shows that SQL Server 2008+ has a hardcoded process at startup that attaches the resource database from the same...

  • RE: Visual Studio Code Names

    UMG Developer (2/10/2011)


    Thanks for the interesting question.

    I'm surprised at the number of people that thought DataDude was the name that hadn't been used, that is what I had heard it...

    Rayven (2/7/2011)


    I can agree with the last two posts.

    Agencies can be sods. I interviewed a guy for one position and when I asked him about his experiences with one...

  • RE: SQL CMD

    UMG Developer (2/8/2011)


    Thanks for the question, I haven't used SQLCMD mode before, do many people use it?

    I develop an application that generates SQL scripts. These scripts should be tested on...

  • RE: Connection Problems

    Toreador (2/7/2011)


    I wonder why they are withrawing this procedure?

    If I have to make a guess, it is probably because over the past years, there has been a consistent move away...

  • RE: I lied, now what?

    Frankly, I am a bit surprised by this editorial. I'll just be blunt and say that it could -no, should- have been shortened to just the first and most of...

  • RE: Clearning the transaction log

    SanDroid (2/4/2011)


    My new question today is does Tran Log Truncation or Check Points or Both get delayed by these situations?

    Does the Tran Log always get truncated after a checkpoint occurs,...

  • RE: Clearning the transaction log

    Oops, hit Send too soon.

    Removed.

  • RE: Clearning the transaction log

    Good question, but the explanation is overly simplistic. There are other reasons for a checkpoint to not clear a VLF.

    I chose the correct answer because I considered the scenario of...

  • RE: Indexing Lookups

    SanDroid (2/3/2011)


    There really isn't the concept of a clustered index that determines the physical order of records. Internally, Oracle uses a multi-part identifier called a ROWID to...
