  • RE: CHECK Constraint for date format required

    Well, the field itself will simply reject any date that isn't in the correct format but if you had a stored procedure to do some bespoke error handling you could...

  • RE: NULLS in Primary Keys

    Yes, continuous push replication. Only the tables are replicated.

    I solved the problem by removing the triggers but the idea that the inserted table contains NULL values in the field...

  • RE: Very large tables w/o PKs, clustered indexes

    If you are adding an IDENTITY field to an existing table this suggests that the table doesn't already have a primary key and doesn't link to anything. It may...

  • RE: Negatives of non-dbo ownership of tables?

    It is a convoluted subject and one I don't fully understand myself.

    It was covered in an article in SQL Server Standard by one of the Brians.

    The gist of it is...

  • RE: Negatives of non-dbo ownership of tables?

    The biggest problem is where someone tries to write a query to access a specific user table that is not their user table.

    As you know SELECT * FROM Authors will...

  • RE: Case statement and unique index

    No it is not valid syntax.

    You could try creating a view and then indexing that.

  • RE: UPDATE statement

    UPDATE poz

    SET tip='k'

    FROM pos INNER JOIN juridic ON poz.con = juridic.con

    WHERE juridic.dosar='p'

  • RE: grouping and storing the data

    Pass your colleges in as a delimited string and use the following function

    CREATE FUNCTION dbo.fnSplitDelimited ( @sInputString1 VARCHAR(8000) , @sSplitChar CHAR(1))

    RETURNS @tbl_List TABLE (Id1 Int PRIMARY KEY )

    AS

  • RE: Two databases for one application??

    The approach is also useful in modular applications. For example you may have 3 modules that can run as discreet applications but can also run as a single master...

  • RE: SELECT COUNT(*) or COUNT(1) Performance or Benefits?

    COUNT(*) or count(1) returns a count of all records including NULLS.

    COUNT(expression) returns a count of all non-null records.

    The first two don't seem to have any performance difference or differences in...

  • RE: Select Query

    No, this isn't true. Dinar's solution is to bounce the records through a table variable with its own identify variable and this would be sequential.

  • RE: Two databases for one application??

    I have applications that use several separate databases, in fact using multiple databases per application is fairly standard in the world of content management systems.

    I would be very careful about...

  • RE: grouping and storing the data

    I would do it using a college table

    * CollegeId,

    * CollegeDescription

    I would either have a separate table to maintain the Parent/Child college relationship

    * ParentCollegeId

    * CollegeId

    or I would put the ParentCollegeId in...

  • RE: More Visas

    The thing that is hardest for a non-US citizens to appreciate is that the US is, near as damn it, a continent rather than a country.

  • RE: Queries very slow

    So if I understand you correctly you have two locations, for the sake of argument we'll call them demo and live.
