  • RE: Transactions

    Nakul Vachhrajani (11/24/2010)


    Hello!

    This was very similar to one of my own QotDs a few months back.

    However, what I take from this one is that the DDL is not committed...

    Just heard IT supervisor say it's 110 degrees in the server room. Glad I don't have anything to do with server admin.

    It must be nice to have...

    Alvin, that's what you look like when you've had time to shave?!? 😀

    But isn't that counterproductive regarding hunting season?

    Depends on...

  • RE: T-SQL GO statement

    It's a good question, but now that MS have clearly stated that # (on its own) will not be supported as a temporary table name in a future version of...

  • RE: Transactions

    Nice easy question.

    Appalled that half the answers to date have been wrong.

  • RE: SSIS Execute Package Task

    Nice question. I didn't know the answer so had to think about what would be likely to happen. Fortunately reached the right conclusion.

  • RE: Data Typing Quandry

    An excellent question.

    I didn't see any ambiguity in it: "defined row size" is not a reserved phrase in connection with SQL server, but then neither are most of...

  • RE: Conditional Order By

    Although I'm irritated that the flipping of 1 and 2 was very noticeable and having noticed it I decided that was "the trick" and thought no more (thus getting the...

  • RE: temp table in sysobjects

    I agree with Scott, the query which the explanation says willprovide info about the table will in fact retrieve nothing unless "=" is changed to "LIKE" and it's running in...

    Irreparably suspect, no backups.

    Doesn't say much for my mood that I slightly enjoyed posting that last message there. Wrong, I know.

    That's it. We're cancelling Christmas for...

    And here's a big ol' U.S. standard baseball bat.

    Jo. Bokken. Katana. Baseball bat.

  • RE: Transparent Data Encryption (TDE) SQL Server 2008

    Eric Min (11/17/2010)


    Thanks Roy.

    We are in Eastern Time zone.

    I think the time zone is not a problem.

    The problem is that the SQL Audit event log time is different from the...

  • RE: Database Snapshot

    This was a good question, with a clearly correct answer.

    All the suggestions that "none of the above" is the correct answer surprised me, and the absolutely illogical arguments supporting that...

  • RE: COALESCE Vs ISNULL

    Nice clean question, answer, and explanation. Thanks.

    But I must remember not to do QOTD at this time of day.

  • RE: Predict the total count

    Hugo Kornelis (11/5/2010)


    Terrible question. The only correct answer is "it depends", and that answer was missing.
