  • RE: Web designer for morons

    Stefan Krzywicki (4/18/2011)


    While I like ASP.Net, I'm a VB programmer when it comes to non-SQL Server things and there's no free compiler that I know of.

    Personally I hate VB anyway,...

    Yes the ClosedDate is of type date.

    Getting a different conversion error: "Explicit conversion from data type int to date is not allowed."

    OK, it's absolutely clear what is going on...

  • RE: Dynamic SQL and IN Operator

    What is the type of the ClosedDate column of the PerformanceReviewHistory table?

    If the type is DATE, try using

    ....PRH.ClosedDate BETWEEN + cast(' + convert(nchar(8), @pStartDate, 112) +...

    Incidentally, you can't call a stored procedure using OPENQUERY either.

    Maybe not, but OPENROWSET works a treat.

    Interesting. I wonder why MS decided to forbid calling a...

    Cross posting Jeff? 🙂

    Higher compression. Ability to split the archive into multiple files (great for huge archives going onto CD/DVD or for getting through email limits). Encryption and passwords....

  • RE: openquery - stored procedure

    nikplic (4/17/2011)


    Is it possible do something like this:

    set@sql=' select * from resultStoredProcedure

    where myCondition'

    Thanks

    No, there's a problem with the set of rows returned by a stored procedure - you can't use...

  • RE: specialize or become better all round?

    It depends what you like. Personally I would have gone crazy if I hadn't done a lot of different things, and learnt a lot of new stuff because I...

  • RE: Dynamic SQL and IN Operator

    Your problem is that @pEmployeeIds exists in the stored procedure, not in the batch executed by DYNAMIC PIVOT.

    The solution: embed the value of @pEmployeeIds in the string passed in, and...

  • RE: How many are too many interviews?

    WayneS (4/16/2011)


    Five seems to me to be a lot... but it probably means that they are down to you and someone else, and are having troubles deciding on which one...

  • RE: Tax Day

    In the UK it's generally impossible to do a Tax return this early - there is all sorts of stuff for which you need figures, some of which you don't...

  • RE: openquery - stored procedure

    Using openquery with loopback will limit what you see out of the stored procedure, because openquery only return's the stored procedures's first result set, so it may not...

  • RE: The Job Posting - Do I really have to be the SQL God?

    LutzM (4/15/2011)


    Question aside: where did you learn German? I'm impressed!

    I didn't think that was impressive, it is after all something very short and simple, no complexity or long words or...

    GilaMonster (4/14/2011)


    Maybe it's a South African thing, but "there's 5 things" doesn't sound wrong to me. "There is 5 things" would have me screaming in pain, but it's almost like...
