    Nice question, but the answer is a bit too obvious, I think.

    So ANSI Joe is still at it? It has been a very long time since I have been to the forums.

    Do we have any new ANSI Joe...

    Again, Gail will already know the reason for the performance boost in the second While Loop. I'm probably not using the right terminology but the simple explanation...

  • RE: What will this query return?

    Good analysis, Hugo, but personally I regard terminating "begin" as an abomination - after all, it is not a statement but a bracket indicating that a compound statement begins here....

  • RE: What will this query return?

    Nice clear question.

    It's also a neat demonstration of how idiotic it was to use rge word "with" to introduce a CTE definition. There were other possibilities, some of them...

    There are 3rd party solutions that do that, but they are rather expensive. At least one we investigated uses its own "black box" to hold the...

    Triggers can capture the originating user as well if you provide that info to the trigger. This can be passed in several ways, including CONTEXT_INFO, APP_NAME or even...

    Bah. I couldn't resist it.

    Someone call the Relational Protection Agency, we have an offender...oh, wait. 😀

  • RE: Using COALESCE and also trying to multiply and divide

    CELKO (9/3/2014)


    My guess is that you should had a talbe like this:

    CREATE TABLE Rents

    (property_id CHAR(15)NOT NULL,

    rental_month CHAR(10) NOT NULL

    CHECK (rental_month LIKE '[12],[0-9][0-9][0-9]-[01][0-9]-00'),

    That's downright appalling....

    Do you have you copy of the ANSI/ISO Standards? Read them. The only display format allowed is ISO-8601, 'yyyy-mm-dd' and not your punctuation free version. Sorry.

    palotaiarpad (9/3/2014)


    I thought it'd fail at:

    [ { @parameter [ type_schema_name. ] data_type }
