    We solved it by telling them any development they did would get lost the next time we did a software update.

  • RE: SQL or Oracle

    Yes and no.

    I used to work for a not-for-profit company that had SQL Server and Access, but no decent devleopment tools. (Couldn't/wouldn't pay for decent MS tools, so had...

  • RE: SQL or Oracle

    Hey! How come nobody is mentioning how good Access is!? :hehe:

  • RE: Windows Full Server Backup and Recovery Tools?

  • RE: PRINT statement

    Agreed.

    The cases where I would use that RAISERROR would be when I'm running admin scripts that I only run very infrequently.

    I've done similar (though less fancy) things with...

  • RE: PRINT statement

    I never did find a way to get the print statement to happen immediatly, but this article tells how to accomplish basically the same thing wiht RAISERROR with the NOWAIT...

  • RE: System Databases

    I thought this was a good tricky one. 😛

  • RE: SQL Agent skipping job runs?

    If it's showing up in the history, then it sounds like it's running.
