  • RE: Creating read only user

    You might check out what permissions have been given to the 'public' user group.  I've seen databases where public was given everything (usually test/development databases) and it was very difficult...

  • RE: programming

    I'd give you the opposite advice.  Do everything you can with stored procs.

  • RE: Converted Sybase to SQL Script

    This looks a little strange:

    AND     JBS_BEFORE_QUANTITY > 0

    AND     JBS_BEFORE_QUANTITY < 1

    What's the data type for this column?  If it's integer, that might explain the 'no rows returned' problem.

    Try

    WHILE @@FETCH_STATUS = 0

    instead of the 0=0 condition.

    0 indicates a successful fetch,...

  • RE: How to turn 3 into ''''03'''' ?

    How about ...

    declare @y int

    set @y = 3

    select substring(convert(varchar(3), @y + 100),2,2)

    It's not a builtin, but it doesn't look too painful.
