    Hulu + Netflix ftw!

    Great if you're in the USA....

    I don't bother with satellite TV. Too many useless channels and to get the ones I'd be interested...

    Boo, missed that 😛

    Here's my fixed version: -

    Drat, I missed out 6 casts ("0" changed to "cast(cast 0 as datetime) as date)" in three places! :blush: I...

    SELECT DATEDIFF(dd,GetDate(),'12/25/11') AS DaysTillChristmas

    Just to over-complicate matters . . . 😀

    SELECT CASE WHEN GETDATE() > DATEADD(d, 24, DATEADD(m, 11, DATEADD(yy, DATEDIFF(yy, 0, GETDATE()), 0)))

  • RE: Maximum number of Databases.

    Nice easy question.

    Richard Warr (12/8/2011)

    Agreed, it's like opening Pandora's Box. ...

  • RE: Complex joins

    A good question - the sort of thing I would like to see more of because it's about understanding the system and its language rather than about remembering the reference...

    Hugo Kornelis (12/6/2011)
