  • RE: Suppress exceeds maximum number of bytes per row warning

  • RE: SP4

    Let me preface this all by saying I don't use replication a whole lot myself. Therefore, if there is someone else (such as Andy Warren) who does, you should probably...

  • RE: SP4

  • RE: Question of the Day for 24 Jan 2006

  • RE: What can I use in stead of the IN operator (to ''''AND'''' the conditions, not ''''OR'''')

    Rahul's solution works if you change the hard number. For instance, if you have 3 options, change the count to = 3. I'll do some looking around and testing to...

    Sure. When you install the Windows operating system (NT 4.0, 2000, XP, 2003 and any based on the NT kernel), any drive letters related to hard drives are automatically shared...

  • RE: What can I use in stead of the IN operator (to ''''AND'''' the conditions, not ''''OR'''')

    The reason they work is because they are using a grouping function, COUNT(*) and comparing the number of matches with the total number of options that have to be matched....

  • RE: SQL Server service accounts
