  • RE: DATETIME - 3

    Nice question and good explanation. Thanks Ron.

    Did I am misleading for the answer?

    NO, you are not misleading in any way, the only thing genuinely wrong with the question is using OBJECTID when DBID would have...

    I think it's a poor fifth in that race. 😎

    I'm still waiting for someone to fix this. The answer saying "ORDER By is required when using a TOP clause" is clearly wrong.

    It seems Steve isn't...

    Looks like we may have a fun day with this question.

    Well.... probably.... I got it right... I noticed the backwardsness... but the other two were obviously wrong... always...

    I just can't understand why anyone would actually use XML. 😉

    The only possible reason is so you can say your indexes are SeXI.

    That...

  • RE: SubQuery

    As many have pointed out, the third option is incorrect and teh fifth option is incorrect - so the supposedly right answer is horribly wrong.

    It would have been a...

  • RE: CREATE statement

    Good question.

    This "create proc (or create function) must be the first thing in the batch" nonsense has long been one of my pet hates. Another is that proc bodies...

    Please try this:

    SET @vchrIsNumeric='$NAME',

    Is Numeric or Is not Numeric?

    That will return Is Numeric as well. Same thing if you do '£NAME'. I think any currency character will...

  • RE: ISNUMERIC

    Nice question, but I don't much like the heading. Fortunately I've learnt not to pay much attention to QotD headings.

    Nice question, no ambiguities. Really good explanation - I very much liked that you took the trouble to mention that TRUNCATE TABLE works even when the clustered index is...

    Clean CLR isn't what scares my DBA's, it's letting my app coders loose with it.

    Oh how things have changed! :w00t:

    I remember the days when what scared...

    Tom and/or Hugo -

    I understand and may even agree your dismay in the BOL description given with this answer.

    I do not see any recomendations for correcting it or...
