  • RE: Newbie Questions - Multimedia database

    What do you need help with? Designing your database tables? Or writing code to parse IMDb? The latter would be beyond the scope of a database. The former we can...

  • RE: How to check missed schedules of custom scheduler?

    I may be stupid and just missing something obvious, but I don't see where you're storing dates at all. You're only storing time and day of the week. So how...

  • RE: Beta distribution

    T-SQL does not have a native BetaDist function. You can buy statistical packages/add-ons that include it, but one that I looked at was $600.

    I'm not a statistics wizard, so...

  • RE: UNABLE TO RETRIEVE data while using between operator

    I actually didn't know you could use BETWEEN in this way, for (var)char datatypes. And without the wildcard % operator. Groovy.

    Holy cow!

  • RE: Query approach

    I can't rival the other guys on this board, but I am using this as practice for myself and would like (constructive but friendly) feedback on the solution I came...

  • RE: calculate months days for start and end date (each month)

    Perhaps "wizardry" would have been more appropriate, but I had a little alliteration thing going there with the "t's", so... 🙂 I'm certainly in awe of you cats and your...

  • RE: calculate months days for start and end date (each month)

    I knew it'd just be a matter of time before someone posted some Cartesian tally table trickery. 🙂

  • RE: calculate months days for start and end date (each month)

    This might be too low budget a solution for you, but what if you simply created another table that had every possible date in it? Then it would simply be...

  • RE: query logic question...

    Yeah, honestly I'm not clear on the specifics of it either. But conceptually I understand what it does, and this seems to fit the bill AFAIK... I hope you'll report...

  • RE: filter behaving differently from query analyser versus when called through sproc

    I think Sean was unclear on the specific failure you were encountering, not unclear on the phrase "where filter". No need to be snippy.

  • RE: query logic question...

    Would UNPIVOT possibly be helpful in this type of scenario?

  • RE: Combine Multiple Queries into a CTE?

    Be sure you are clear on the difference between UNION, and UNION ALL. Give a holler if you need any more help. 🙂

  • RE: Combine Multiple Queries into a CTE?

    If I'm understanding this correctly, it looks like you probably want to create a single CTE that holds the contents of all 3 of your select statements. You can combine...
