    But, try to answer this:

    "What's the resut?"

  • RE: CHECKing Values

    Anyway -- the BOL quote explains it in technical implementation-related terms. The explanation given by Steve is the same but in more functional terms: the value is unknown, it could...

  • RE: CHECKing Values

    I disagree with explanation:

    However NULLs are not restricted as the value could be less than 10

    CHECK evaluates only true (accepted) or false (rejected) expression not UNKNOWN (accepted).

    From BOL:

    CHECK constraints reject...

  • RE: CROSS APPLY on named sets

    I disagree with explanation, the error generated

    Msg 4104, Level 16, State 1, Line 2

    The multi-part identifier "o.object_id" could not be bound.

    Small correction required - UDFs came in as part of 2000 didn't they?

    I think they started earlier with stored procs ('90): sql 6.0

  • RE: Merry Christmas 2015

    The "order by" clause misses!

    Try this:

    declare @image as table (

    row_id tinyint

    primary key clustered (row_id desc)

    );

    insert into @image(row_id)

    values(1),(2),(3),(4),(5),(6),(7),(8),(9)

    select

    case

    when max(i.row_id) over() - i.row_id >...

  • RE: Moving the Resource Database

    Here's a method to move resource database:

  • RE: Nested Schemas

    patricklambin (11/18/2015)


    I would advice to prohibit this way of coding/naming.

    I disagree, naming conventions should reflect the factory needs. So, it may be that [Sales.XXX] is good in some environment.
